MAGA’s mission to meddle in European politics should terrify Starmer, Macron and Merz. Will any of them fight back?
Donald Trump has launched a crusade to convert European politics to his cause, mobilizing the full force of American diplomacy to promote “patriotic” parties, stamp on migration, destroy “censorship” and save “civilization” from decay.
The question is whether Europe’s embattled centrists have the power, or the will, to stop him. In its newly released National Security Strategy document, the White House set out for the first time in a comprehensive form its approach to the geopolitical challenges facing the U.S. and the world.
While bringing peace to Ukraine gets a mention, when it comes to Europe, America’s official stance is now that its security depends on shifting the continent’s politics decisively to the right.
Except, of course, for audience size. Which, if you are running ads, is sort of the main goal.
Of course I won’t leave the platform because no one else will is a self fulfilling prophecy.
I’m not on either of them, but I’m also not confused as to how a group that’s wanting to run ads might prefer an audience of hundreds of millions of people instead of tens of millions.
In all fairness, fuck ads! No one wants them except for the people that make them.
I’m not disagreeing with that, but saying they “wouldn’t lose much by switching” is laughably untrue.
