I hope that 16% is mostly comprised of naive Europeans that still believe in restoring relations because else that number is still too high.

So every 6th European has not watched any news lately. At least that’s healthy.

So the US really does have twice as many idiots as the EU per capita. Even on Trump’s worst day he still gets 1/3 of Americans’ support.

The US have rarely been an ally.
They are a bully, is what they are.
They veto everything, in the UN, NATO, etc.
They are the outlier for so much that when you see maps of “which country voted for or against” for anything of consequence (e.g. human rights, etc.) it’s always the same picture. Everywhere green, the US and only a couple of tinpot dictatorships red.
The US aren’t an ally to us and haven’t been for a long time. They are *tolerant* of us, and we are *tolerant* of them, and our politicians kowtow to them like the kid who hides behind the school bully going “Yeah! Right!”.
If you want to know about the US/UK relationship, look to a popular movie from 2003:
I love that word “relationship.” Covers all manner of sins, doesn’t it? I fear that this has become a bad relationship; a relationship based on the President taking exactly what he wants and casually ignoring all those things that really matter to, erm… Britain. We may be a small country, but we’re a great one, too. The country of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Beatles, Sean Connery, Harry Potter. David Beckham’s right foot. David Beckham’s left foot, come to that. And a friend who bullies us is no longer a friend. And since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward I will be prepared to be much stronger. And the President should be prepared for that.
I would give my vote to any PM with the balls enough to actually stand up and say that. Because it is so true.
And Trump… Trump is expecting that to be the case with so little consideration that places like the UK might object that he’s dangerous. And we’re still pandering to him.

That 25% are reform nutters who want Farage to do to the UK what Trump is doing to the US. They will throw this country down the shitter just to satisfy their racist impulses. Honestly the western world needs to reckon with the idea of disenfranchisement of anti social and fascist leaning individuals, before they destroy the planet.

Putin’s man in the White House is not an ally of Europe, that’s for sure.

Whether u like him or don’t (I don’t), he exposed things we never wanted to talk about: European & Canadian lack of financial support for NATO. He got tired of America paying for Europe’s defense. He called it out. EU might not think the U.S. is an ally, but many Americans never considered Europe as a reliable ally (militarily).

When it comes to UK/EU relations it’s now alot harder for Farage to push the “let’s get closer to the US instead” line like he did for Brexit.

The 16% must be Putin supporters.

I’m surprised it’s @25% here. No one has a good thing to say about the US. I think everyone wants distance from them.
If only we were part of a union with our neighbouring countries….

Yes, we are all for the authoritarian EU! We do not want Free Speech! We want to be taxed even more! We do mot want the right to defend ourselves and to become the homeless shelter for the whole world!

**I am _shocked_**. Well, maybe not so much.
The US government is known throughout the years to treat **_allies_ as vassals**, and to get **involved with foreign affairs** (commonly by force) for exclusively private benefits while brandishing the flag of moral superiority.
The only difference is that now Trump is so blatantly arrogant and transparent that it’s not subtle anymore.
