I wonder how the Europeans are doing? They sacrificed their economy for this guy and the other guy was talking about dismantling NATO during his presidency. I'm sure they're all feeling wonderful in their decisions.

Europeans feel superior to the American people who they consider to be uncultured swine with nothing but guns and cheeseburgers on their mind. Europeans also feel houndishly loyal to the American state, as they give it sole credit for saving them from the horrors of Nazism and communism. Received wisdom in Europe is that America is the benevolent big brother who keeps us safe from the "jungle" with their bloated military and that any break with America would be the recipe for disaster and Russian/Chinese invasion of ever inch of land from Portugal to Svalbard.

Trump represented a big ideological problem for Europeans as he was the leader of the American while also being placed solidly in the "average American idiot" category by his theatrics. Other presidents acted the part, not confusing the Europeans. Even the visibly demented Biden has been able to project sufficient "professional elite" vibes for Europeans to accept him. Maybe this will change now the powers that be has decided that Biden's dementia is an acceptable topic of conversation.

"we need to be more like the USA" seems to be the general takeaway by Danish politicians. We've just had inheritance taxes lowered to 10%

The neoliberal lapdog establishment doesn't care, they'll run the entire thing to the ground before turning tail on their owners.
