  26. Couple of things to mention that Americans seem to miss, our leadership class is literally appealing to your own moral system of rule when they are rude about America, your ruling class hate America so ours act the same to get brownie points, it also always them to act aggressively in a direction that is totally safe for them. The American government has put massive pressure on both Canada and Europe to remain disarmed, indeed Canada was almost a military state at the end of WW2 (they were basically the crack shock troops of the British Empire, and very proud of it), when they offered that to the Americans your government was very reluctant to have Snow Spartans on their northern border and were quite active in seeing Canada disarmed and reorienting them into a welfare state so their financial commitments would not allow a repeat. Likewise in Europe, it's taken a long time to fully placate the European states (especially France, like seriously, there were colour revolutions over it, ironically with the communists backing the right wing despite the French thinking they were behind it), military security is directly linked to autonomy, if all these states are reliant on US military hegemony they can never pursue independent policy or get out from under American protectorship. The reason the deep state panicked is that Trump is not undoing stupid ideas, he is knocking over very subtle and well thought out mechanisms and backroom deals because as he has correctly assessed they are at a direct cost the Americans themselves, but the elite don't care about that, the structures are to the benefit of their own wealth and power and the American Imperial project, all the common American does it pay for it (and they'd say they should be thankful, as Europeans and other subject people's pay even more, indeed they've pretty much been drained, a bit like the rust belt but for longer depending on utility, with the borderlands getting an easier time and interior provinces having pretty much been sucked dry).
