Only? Probably for the remaining 27% it never was…
I can’t blame them. I wouldn’t want to be an ally with the U.S. either.
For 53% of American people, the United States is no longer an ally of US.
I don’t consider it an ally of the American people, either.
I assumed we lost their support years ago. I thought we couldn’t get more petty than “Freedom fries”. I was way wrong.
It’s too bad that the sensible areas of US are on both sides of the continent. Would make a split much simpler if they were closer together.
This is a good thing. If war breaks out, we already got the bastards surrounded!
250 year old friend thrown away for a 100 year old adversary.
France should take the Statue of Liberty back. The US gov will probably replace it anyway, by one of Donald having is golden balls sucked by a sexy eagle while driving a cybertruck, or something.
Maybe France will end up liberating the North American continent once again. 😉
That feeling has been reflected in recent polls here in the UK too and I think the US might be finally blowing it with its ‘allies’.
I hope that the Trump administration can get all its core industries up and running because there is a big sense that the US empire is on its way out now. It was always bound to happen eventually because it always does but I was not expecting to see it unravel so fast and so soon.
Perhaps the US population can resolve (or dissolve) its internal divisions and conflict but I think it will take years and Europe has urgent problems that need tackling right away.
Pssst, France… I’m telling ya, it should be 100%.
That’s crazy to me that America has changed so much that a nation they freed from Nazi control cannot consider the USA an ally any more because of the fascist ideology the trump administration is showing to the world. This all happened in like 2 months time. This is just the beginning and I don’t see things getting better at all.
The conservative propaganda machine has been replacing empathy with cold-hard individualism for going on 50-years. Everything is a wedge issue and if it shouldn’t be, it’ll be made one. We like to make comparisons to the rise of fascism in the 1930s, but the tools, methods, and reach of today’s tech makes that time feel like it took root through fortune cookies in comparison.
I don’t know how we can hope to deprogram some of these people.
It’s so much worse for the US
France was our first ally. After the revolutionary war, France was the first to recognize us as a country.
They were the first NATO nation to join us in the global war on terror after we invoked Article 5.
Make all the “France surrendered” jokes you want but they have given more to us than we have given them, diplomatically speaking.
Trump is just giving every ally we have a huge middle finger that will take decades to overcome. All so that Trump can feel like a big man.
What percent thought of us as an ally before November?
Time for take-backsies on the Louisiana Purchase. Also the Statue of Liberty.
