EU could BREAK UP the US: Juncker in jaw-dropping threat to Trump over support for Brexit

By Nick Gutteridge, Brussels Correspondent
PUBLISHED: 12:14, Thu, Mar 30, 2017 | UPDATED: 15:47, Thu, Mar 30, 2017

In an extraordinary speech the EU Commission president said he would push for Ohio and Texas to split from the rest of America if the Republican president does not change his tune and become more supportive of the EU.

The remarks are diplomatic dynamite at a time when relations between Washington and Brussels are already strained over Europe’s meagre contributions to NATO and the US leader’s open preference for dealing with national governments.

giving Hawaii to Japan and sending Kalifornistan on its separate way does sound pretty good

I may become a supporter of this EU guy.

I think it’s called delusions of grandeur.

The reality is that it isn't even delusions of adequacy, let alone delusions of grandeur. That this imbecile Junker has any position of power whatsoever, is proof positive that large swathes of Europe are under a deep psychosis, being once again mesmerized by a 'politician' who is clearly insane.

How well did the last episode of this phenomenon turn out?

His original statement was not Texas but Austin Texas which most Texans see as doable. We could move the capitol to Gunbarrel Texas or Cut and Shoot Texas.

Nah, I'm holding out for Old Dime Box, myself...

That would not be objectionable if the EU started with Southern California.

This is getting really cool. So, if France goes with Le Pen, it is the WW II alliance against the Reich . . . again!

I’m partial to Dimebox TX or Shiner TX as the new state capitol, but will also accept Gunbarrel TX or Bloomington TX.

But never, ever, El Toro TX.

The article should be updated to read (The soon to be former head of the EU, threatened.....) That would be more accurate.

Juncker is giving the game away when he compares the EU to the USA - he is in effect claiming that the EU is a single country.

The people in Europe didn’t vote for that, but the elites are giving it to the good and hard.
