A lot of us in America would rather see us in a partnership with those who share our values. After the fall of the U.S.S.R., Russia had to embrace the American values of the free market and even realized an atheist state goes to rot within 2 generations. Morality and quality of life is up now that they dropped Left wing ideology.
If we didn't elect Trump, Russia would have been more American than America.
This may sound odd but it is truly shocking how easily Europe embraces deadly ideas like socialism, so many deaths and wars happened in the 20th century and it's like Europeans are pretending none of it happened.
Being allied to a nation with a death wish sounds awful, socialism is the real cancer in politics and would only drag us down.
We don't hate Europe by any means, we feel sad for the people there. I know taking out nationalism from your socialism was supposed to make it acceptable but it just makes those of us with a sense of economics panic.
A central planning system that calculates the needs of the people and redistributes the wealth that doesn't control its population is doomed. Complete insanity like that will only cause serious pain for you guys, central planning with out a plan.....
