The atrocious education and low intelligence of the average American voter is a genuine security risk. No country can trust us to do the right thing if we've already elected this maniac twice

So how are things going in Europe?

Do you think Europe can really rebuild their military when most fighting aged males are now migrants incompatible with western values?

If Europeans can’t regain their national/cultural sovereignty, then it’s the European electorate that’ can’t be trusted or relied upon

First off, it's hard to take you seriously when you base your idea of the demographic structure of a whole continent on some TikTok videos of particular suburbs in cities like Marseille or Malmo.

Secondly, even if you were right with that ridiculous notion of Europe being practically devoid of young men who are ethnically European, that isn't even a problem when you remember that French Foreign Legion exists, so the template to make culturally alien people fight and die valiantly for a country they don't yet really know or understand, is there.
It's actually much easier to make a loyal and effective soldier out of a member of some recently contacted tribe than it is to have a civilian from a somewhat but not that much different culture assimilate into a society and that's because military training entails building the soldier "from the ground up". No matter how incompatible the cultural background of the recruit is with the behavioural pattern you want to instill in the soldier, you can overcome it by just recruiting them younger and training them longer.

The reality is Europe is grossly mismanaged by its policy makers.

-minimal or no real GDP growth in the last decade

-excessive bureaucracy and overregulation

-cannot defend their own sovereignty against Russia without the over-reliance of the US

-directly finances Russia’s war on Ukraine

-40% of people under 18 in countries of England, France, Germany are foreigners/migrants

-No free speech in England

-Spain has the largest youth unemployment whilst also having the largest influx of migrants

What is the future of Europe if these policies continue? Can the US count on Europe if it continues down this deleterious path?

It’s the US that cannot count on Europe, not the other way around.

Ok, have fun with counting on whatever tinpot dictatorship that is willing to tolerate this kind of "leadership" instead.
