Love. And, resent. But --- we were never supposed to question anything. Biden wandering away in Italy. Even the EU had to be thinking, "whaaaat?" They had to be on notice.
The French are way worse than the Germans. Like, fuck them. I traveled extensively in Europe from 2011 to 2020 for business. There were two locations I'd go in Germany, and they sure had lots of questions about this Trump guy in 2017. The other thing I noticed throughout Germany was the "never again" feeling about the Nazis. I give them credit for not pretending WWII didn't happen. And I know they're trying to stop any new Nazi-ish recurrence with some of their shortsighted laws. Now comes the opportunity to understand that perhaps they overcorrected. Alas, old Boris doesn't appear to have any concerns.
They love US(A) when we are paying their bills...

Uh no they don't. They take your money and they laugh at you behind your back. You have travelled to Europe?
Around here, we call it "conditional love". Same as you'd get from a hooker.
At least the hooker does its job and goes away.

Yes, I have. But Many years ago. 1979.
'Did the whole youth hostel thing. Met young people traveling from all over. Eurail pass, hitching rides, and so on.
The Ugly American. Speak our language. Blah, blah, blah. That was then, this is now.
We should have a lot of things in common. Do we?
