He's right. The US can't be relied on for the next four years, at minimum. Hell, parts of the apparatus might be turned against European security.

Please, look after yourselves.

And what Trump is likely to destroy in the coming years will take ages to rebuild, assuming it ever is.

We all hope it will be enough to shock the European governments into cooperating for once, but the odds are really stacked against that, even if some are willing.

I'm hopefully being extremely pessimistic, but if the Rs have their way (and since they'll control all 3 branches of government, they most certainly will have their way), America will be a much different country. There may not be anything to rebuild because America will be exactly the way they want it to be and there won't be any more parties to go against them. The likelihood that America will be an authoritarian government is pretty high.
