I think it's a good thing, for too long have Europe been content to sit back on their laurels and not invest in their militaries, focusing on socialism instead. Now they have a nuclear threat on their doorstep and the US is leaving them in the cold. This country has been stagnating under the red and blue halves of a single party dictatorship for the past 80 years, who seem to be wholly short-sighted, unambitious, fearful, and worst of all; adversarial to the interests of their own population.
Kier Stalin and the other continental communists will have to make some big changes to stay in power. Otherwise we'll be getting our own Trump, or perhaps something even worse.
