It’s ironic that points the left has been making for four decades - that the US couldn’t be relied on, that Europe needed to be “neither Washington nor Moscow” - have been so ably demonstrated by Trump.
@ianbetteridge I’ve been nominally on The Left my entire life, but I have found it mostly to be incredibly naive, concerned more with its own moral purity than taking action, and incapable (and often uninterested) in governing.
The Left has been implacably opposed to the EU and NATO forever.
IMHO It should look long and hard at its own sins rather than preaching to the choir.
