European politicians and diplomats had already prepared for changes to their relationship with the US in the event of a second Donald Trump presidency.
Now that the Republican candidate has chosen Ohio Senator JD Vance as his running mate, those differences appear even more stark on prospects for the war in Ukraine, security and trade.
A vocal critic of US aid to Ukraine, Mr Vance told this year’s Munich Security Conference that Europe should wake up to the US having to “pivot” its focus to East Asia.
“The American security blanket has allowed European security to atrophy,” he said.
If you think European leaders are worried, try being an American citizen!
Imagine being a Ukraine citizen!!! For them it’s literally life and death on a daily basis.

You took it too far bro
I don’t think they are worried about the next US presidency though? That’s the context of this comment chain. They are being fucked by the US regardless of the president that gets elected. All the other comments were about people that will be affected by it in a medium to major way.
Yep. I think I got the wrong end of the stick.
He might be my worst nightmare: an intelligent, opportunistic, disingenuous, duplicitous, hateful, proudly misogynistic, election-denying, authoritarian-curious chaos agent, wrapped in a young relatively attractive white man’s body. He will do a far better job than Trump ever could at making their sick regressive and paternalistic fantasies come true for all of us.
He actively beliefs and endorses Dark Enlightenment and the media needs to start drawing attention to it.

Fuck. This is worse than I thought. I also really don’t like that I’d never heard of it, so thank you.
Cool, I love learning new terms that will haunt me in the future.
He actively beliefs and endorses Dark Enlightenment
If you see a Nazi, say “nazi”.
Don’t think for a minute that Vance won’t throw the orange clown under a moving train once he positions himself in power. The orange felon’s days are numbered.
He might be that now, but Trump is gonna make sure to break him of that competence and any accompanying confidence.
The man cannot handle the idea of someone being in a position to replace him even if he dies, because to him that means they can replace him in a plot to kick him out.
I don’t think we should find out
That is also true.
Might be the idea. “They won’t dare try anything now, because it’ll be worse.”
I’m sure he has some underage skeletons in his closet.
Eh, maybe. He’s largely untested. Hopefully he’ll stay that way.

I will not correct you. I live in Ohio. A 13 year old Ohio girl absolutely had to go to Illinois to get an abortion. To which the doctor there later had his medical liscense revoked.
Probably.
J.D. Vance, the author and venture capitalist running for the GOP nomination for a Senate seat from Ohio, this week defended the Texas abortion law and argued against the need for exceptions for rape and incest in such restrictive statutes, downplaying such circumstances as “inconvenient.”
Every time I read JD Vance my mind goes
“JD Vance of Vance Refrigeration”
What was that guys name from The Office again?
I keep thinking of J. D. Power and Associates like he’s gonna rate Honda Civics.
I keep seeing his have and confusing him for Dale from Tucker and Dale vs Evil.
Like, without Alan Tyduk, the evil wins.
Bob. Bob Vance, Vance refrigeration.
What line of work are you in JD?
Implying that the UK has been overrun with scary Islamist muslims was a choice, too.

John Donald Vance
East Asia? Hmm, what’s in East Asia? (Real question)
