There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

I think what makes this moment feel so big and groundbreaking is that even those among us who have been talking about the need/danger of a Europe without the US for a long time, were usually in the mindset of a US disinterested in Europe. But not a US actively hostile to Europe& European interests.

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

Technology has transformed ideological persuasion: If people spend more time online, staying single, rarely interacting with others - self-selecting into echo chambers, sharing a broad package of ideas - then don't be surprised if they diverge..

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia. Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist. Extraordinary.

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

Sollten wir das irgendwie überstehen, werden zukünftige Historiker auch die Rolle der Medien, ihr Sane-Washing von offensichtlich Verrücktem, ihre Faszination mit Fringe-Charakteren, etc. aufarbeiten. Trump, vor allem Trump 2, AfD, BSW, sogar Elon Musk sind zT Medienphänomene.

EU leaders will debate soon the future of EU defence policy and the debate centres around "intergovernmental solutions" like using the ESM to finance increased defense spending. This totally misses the mark in my view. We are beating around the bush. It's time for a real debate - and decisions:

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.

Meine Tochter ist mit ihrem Vater drei Tage weg und ich lebe für mich allein. Haben alle Leute ohne Kinder diese grenzenlose Freiheit? Was für verschiedene Leben, was für verschiedene Welten. Kein Wunder, dass immer weniger Leute Kinder kriegen wollen, seit sie zum "Privatvergnügen" erklärt wurden.
