**End of EU? Brussels devastated over Trump's win...[EU parliamentary President Schulz panicking]**
EXPRESS (UK) ^ | November 9, 2016 | Rob Virtue

THE election of Donald Trump could mean devastation for the European Union with the parliament's president Martin Schulz admitted relations just become "harder".

Mr. Trump was confirmed as the next United States president this morning and within minutes Mr Schulz spoke out over his disappointment.

The EU has enjoyed close links with the US and President Barack 0bama and is a major trading partner.

The EU president told Europe 1 radio It will be hard, harder than with previous administrations but he is the freely elected president.

"We must respect the future president of the United States (...) I hope we will find a slot to cooperate."

Mr Trump has been disparaging of the bloc over the last year, backing Brexit and inviting Mr Schulz's arch enemy Nigel Farage to the US.

Mr Schulz expanded on his comments on Twitter this morning where he released a statement saying Mr Trump had become the "standard-bearer of the angst and fears of millions of Americans".

He added: "Global politics requires the continuous engagement of the US to make the world a better place to leave to our children.

"From the fight against global warming to its commitment to NATO, the world awaits and hopes for an outward-looking presidency aiming at shaping international relations and upholding the values of freedom and democracy."

Mr Schulz added the EU is the "largest trading partner of the US" and concluded: "The EU is committed to maintain this relationship. We hope the same holds true for the future US President."

Speculation is mounting over what Trump would do next following his election

The EU’s Brexit negotiator Guy Verhofstadt also lamented Mr Trump’s victory.

He wrote on Twitter: “Trump wins. Not only missed chance to elect a 1st woman president.

“Wake up call for Europe to further unite & take charge of its own destiny.”

EU Commission Jean-Cluade Juncker is yet to respond to this morning’s news.

There had been speculation the US election could have far reaching consequences for the EU.

In the run-up to his victory, Mr Trump said: “I think the EU is going to break up,” he told the Times. “The people are fed up, whether it’s here or in other countries. You watch: other countries will follow.”

Great...so insult the US at every turn in the name of cooperation. I would love to see Trump and Farage tag team these Pu$$ies and embarrass them to the world.

” ... it is funny how these Euro twits who claim to hate America and Americans hop to it and try to insert themselves into US politics”

I just got an email from a Danish acquaintance of mine, who lives in Germany, expressing amazement about how moronic America must be to have elected Trump. I told him that if he wouldn’t denigrate us for electing Trump I wouldn’t denigrate his German hosts for electing Merkel.

The EU should revert back to its original purpose as a common market, and dump the euro (for those countries using it) and the Brussels bureaucracy.

The NWO should be looking at 0bama as the cause of all their problems really. 0bama pushed things too far, too fast so that it was noticeable even by the dimwittiest Americans. He woke up a lot of people to what the NWO was up to.

Heck -- 0bama is still their HERO!

For 8 years, the NWO overlords and everybody else witnessed no end or pushback to his blatant abuse of the law and the Constitution. He was engineering the death of American sovereignty before all our eyes -- it was shocking. But they loved it!

Sure he pushed the limit far past the expected, but the NWO elites were giddy, riding him for as hard and long as thy could, but taking it for granted. They just never expected that their hot streak would abruptly end -- least of all, courtesy of Trump.

0bama himself along with the Clintons exposed themselves, unconcerned with appearances of in-your-face corruption, obviously NEVER believing Trump would win and justice served.

Secondly, Wikileaks -- the unsung heros of Freedom -- are the ones who really opened everyone's eyes in exposing the extent of hidden corruption and collusion.

It will be fascinating to see to what extent justice is meted out. AND what the Trum admin does with those 650k emails that could drain the swamp.

Prayers for Trump.
Many powerful people, and entities, don't want him in office.

One country Star Trek crap is falling apart!

The snow flakes in and out of our universities live in their fantasy Star Crap world.

Reality is coming at them in the form of the Trump High Speed Express Train.

Male? How moronic is it to watch the mayhem like a p*ssy as his women and nation raped, pillaged, and commit suicide? Does he understand the concept of freedom, and personal and national sovereignty?

I told him that if he wouldn’t denigrate us for electing Trump I wouldn’t denigrate his German hosts for electing Merkel.

Good point. You were being kind. Quite kind :-)

You go it. These snowflakes now do not have a little wimp to be there for them now.
Time for them to grow up and put this country first and foremost.

I’m so tired of the Brussel perverts telling us what to do and how to do it.

Inform them, our Nato forces will be withdrawn in months.

For Europe to revert back to common sense policy and purpose defeats the elites' long-standing post WWII goal of a One World Gummint/Reich.

Elites (both in the USA and in Europe) prefer the boot on the neck of the little people, a neo-Roman Empire selling a counterfeit UN and fake Kumbaya as perverse un-elected overlords in Brussels micro-manage their lives.

Yup! Gotta be KILLIN' the Elites now that their charade has been derailed and busted. Wait till all the other EU nations reject the EU -- GAME OVER!

We can't let go of this momentum! (Just like them when they're in power.)

Hear ya with our needed prayers...

The Lord's hand of protection in desperately needed. The vipers who oppose Trump's "interference" will not ever go quietly. This is why the Swamp MUST be drained ASAP!

I can’t wait until he leverages NATO participation and the cost of maintaining US defense forces in Europe for trade deals. IMO, they know if we pull our forces from Europe now, the muzzies will likely overthrow their pseudo-commie governments.

Trump sure is a game-changer, isn't he?

The EU is scrambling around not only for survival, but realize Trump /= 0bama. They'd better be nice. REAL nice. And smart.

This swamp is the size of the Pacific Ocean.
The Lord is definitely needed.

I watched star trek with my youngest the other day. It was the older program version, and Capt Luke Picard was saying to an alien or whatever it was that earth got rid of their borders, and people all lived together in peace.

I thought right away how the left wants that. LOL

A script right out of the Academia and the DNC, right? Hollywood has been THE single best source of Leftist/Humanist propaganda Politics masquerading as Entertainment.

For the last 50 years, Star Trek, the Left and their Kumbaya vision for the future have kept on insisting on a "tolerance" that ONLY exists...if Christians and Jews were gone. But somehow, peace exists with ISLAM (just as Dubya Bush lectured.) And then and only then is "World Peace" is a foregone conclusion. The kooks of the Left still believe it. The evil bastids.

Heh...And at the VERY bottom of the Marianas Trench is...Soros ;-)

The Lord has just spoken on this election. I consider it a miracle, given the tools at the NWO's disposal.

We need to keep on praying for His divine intervention and to keep on praying for His blessings. We're close to blowing it, and frankly don't deserve it. This is out LAST CHANCE.
