Where would Europe turn, if not the USA?

Clip brings up a good point on trusting Europe with our intelligence & weapons systems.

If we push Europe away they get closer to China and make China stronger.

They would be a millstone around China's neck.

They aren’t giving up their “free” healthcare and other social services. They’ll run to china as soon as their drug prices go up. I’ve got some European friends that fall on the conservative side of the aisle and they abhor Trump for making them pay their own way.

This would imply they haven’t already been getting closer to China. Most of these European allies have a police state that resembles that of China. Suppressing any free speech at all and arresting anyone that dares to criticize something like Muslim rape gangs. They are our allies in regards to what we had in the past. But in regards to policy and the trend, they are not.

Sadly, it feels like the French (out of the Western countries) are the only ones that wouldn't sell their souls to the highest bidder.

I think Europe would be better off without us. They've gone nuts because they can. Similar to how you never see blue hair save the whales type kids in a trailer park. They're the way they are because they haven't had to actually worry about anything for quite a long time now thanks to us.

Muslim rape gangs


quote:

Yes, organized grooming gangs—groups systematically targeting, grooming, trafficking, and raping vulnerable young girls—exist in the UK and parts of Europe. They are well-documented through court convictions, victim testimonies, and official inquiries, with perpetrators disproportionately men of Pakistani Muslim or broader Muslim-majority migrant backgrounds.
UK
The 2014 Jay Report on Rotherham found at least 1,400 children (mostly White British girls) abused 1997–2013, predominantly by Pakistani-heritage men. Similar scandals hit Rochdale, Oxford, Telford, Newcastle, and others. A 2025 Baroness Casey audit confirmed local data from Greater Manchester, South Yorkshire, and West Yorkshire shows disproportionate Asian (mainly Pakistani) involvement in group-based child sexual exploitation. National data gaps persist (ethnicity unrecorded for ~2/3 of cases), but high-profile convictions repeatedly feature Pakistani Muslim networks. A new statutory Independent Inquiry into Grooming Gangs starts April 2026 to examine ethnicity, culture, and institutional failures.
Authorities often hesitated due to fears of "racism," delaying justice.
Europe
Post-2015 migration surges saw spikes:

Cologne NYE 2015–16: ~1,200 sexual assaults/robberies by groups of ~1,000 men, mostly Arab/North African asylum seekers.
Sweden: Studies show ~60%+ of rape convictions involve foreign-born or immigrant-background men (MENA/African over-represented), far above population share—especially in stranger/group cases. A 2025 study linked higher odds to immigrants arriving as teens/adults.

These reflect cultural clashes around gender norms, integration failures, and attitudes toward non-Muslim girls—not representative of all Muslims. Most child sex abuse involves other patterns (e.g., familial White offenders), but "street grooming" gangs show this ethnic skew. Better data collection and honest discussion of drivers are essential.


Google the points here if you doubt or don't believe.

I feel like they all would. But maybe France would finally stand up.

“ If we push Europe away they get closer to China and make China stronger.”(quote SF).

So we give the CCP an open door to our Intel and Military capabilities?

Europe made a choice and they can get out their Prayer Rugs. The former freedoms they enjoyed and their extraordinary culture is over. For that matter, so is ours. As this coming election will either be a verified one or Trump will throw a wrench in the whole thing. As he should in fulfilling his Oath. The Founders knew this day would come. Muh Democracy and “mob rule “.

something this board has been talking about for a while now.

They can depend on their new overlords....Saudis and Qutaris. China will take their piece too. Europe will be begging us to help them out but they let to many of the enemy in they can get bent we will spill blood for them like we did 75 -100 yrs ago. They can fight them off with their own like their (and our) ancestors did.

Eastern Europe will probably line up with Russia.

We just need to find a way to strengthen the Monroe doctrine and isolate our the western hemisphere. Send people who dont belong here back out, and shut it down. Especially the non- Christians. We have everything we need in our hemisphere. Frick the rest at this point.

china has a median income $4,800.00 per year and their debt to GDP is over 300% ours contrary to popular belief on this board is a very manageable 110-120% it amazes me the things you people think you know!

To add...we need to get Greenland and the close down the western hemisphere. Tell Canadian to get on track or we'll force them too.

China has been embarrassed by Trump when it comes to their military equipment. So their military isn't as intimidating other than their body count they will sacrifice.

In today's world, we'd probably partner up best with Russia, especially if somehow they are able to make/play nice with eastern Europe.

We'd just have to figure out the Japan/Taiwan/etc friendship and our Pacific territories when shitting down our hemisphere.

Obviously none of this will end up being the case, but atp making strong lines is needed.

The world and especially Europe ain't our granddaddy's Europe.

I believe you. I don’t have first hand experience, but I work with several people from across the pond and they have all said that it’s worse than it’s been made out to be. They’ve been so conditioned to stay quiet about it that they shy away from talking about it even though they are thousands of miles away from home.

Because they have loved ones there who will be punished if they speak out. Europe is the canary in the coal mine.

I think Trump is the only person ruthless enough to pull the trigger on total rejection of any election that is not clean. They ALL damn well know that the Voter Rolls are dirty but all sat on their hands last time (Jan 6) and enough will again to make any honest Systemic reform possible. Sadly so. Like the Mullahs they will blow up the whole thing before giving up on their Democratic Fascist rule.

Yep.

The right works for a living, while the left votes for a living. These people have repeatedly demonstrated their propensity for violence and inability to be impartial. They are ruthless and stole an election. They have tried to assassinate and have assassinated many on the right. There is no opportunity for a legitimate debate because they have abandoned all logic.

PS: listening to Royce White; that guy is the most eloquent, articulate, brave and intelligent political commentator in the game. If he were to pull off a miracle up in Minnesota they’d‘Charlie Kirk’ him.
