>>And the EU only cares about short-term monetary gains<<

I disagree with this. The EU has a long-term goal of incorporating the Middle East, or much of it, and northern Africa.
This has been a strategic goal of the EU for decades. It was their original plan for equalizing the power of the U.S. and the USSR.
Now that USSR is gone, Germany is again looking towards Russia (as they always do ... Lebensraum), but France is specifically focused on the Middle East and northern Africa. (Former French colonies include Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia.)
The EU plan to incorporate the region may also account for their WANTING TO GET RID OF ISRAEL.
This plan may also account for WHY THEY ARE OKAY WITH NUCLEAR IRAN.
FReeQs, we are going to need many more Trumps before this is over. Someday the world’s 5th major nuclear power will be Islamic, i.e., France.

I fear that we have a unique leader. An Alexander the Great who won’t be followed by another strong leader. But he’s doing everything he can do to change laws as fast as he can, and his winning is nothing short of historical. We just have to keep Congress in Republican hands in ‘18 so he can keep doing it.
You gave a very cogent argument on EU plans. Makes beautiful sense.
I respectfully disagree about the EU’s expansionist goals.
You can’t incorporate the Middle East and northern Africa without incorporating (or eliminating) their population. That incorporation will kill the European host, or change it beyond recognition, as we are seeing now from small doses.
That doesn’t mean that some of the EU political higher ups might not have the vision you’ve mentioned. But, I don’t see how it can possibly work out as planned.
I humbly disagree.
I think the EU power is waning and the decent people in Europe will get their countries back again.
