As for Germany, AfD is sold by the media as a 3rd Reich revival party. Support from Musk and Vance should cause people who were hesitant because of that fear to question the narrative.

Oh I know how they're portrayed. I think the net effect will be the opposite though.

Trump and Vance's rhetorical shenanigans will undoubtedly solidify the conviction of those who already support them, but they have been a boon for the Euroregime.

As I said even if I agree with Trump, I also think Europe needs to put boots on the ground to stop Putin. But unfortunately the consequence of that is giving air to the current elites.

If you want a more cynical approach: I'd rather have Ukraine's resources for Europe than for Russia and the US.

And what if thats all done by purpose?

Europe gets the license to print + a scapegoat and the cycle repeats with different bureaucrats.

I think that to some extent Trump and his circle know all this and yes, they are giving the Euroregime the chance to save face by playing the villain while they do what Trump wants (step up and pay up), because they don't really want an *actual* regime change in Europe.

Which also helps Trump save face with his most ignorant MAGA base members.

Same with the retarded and so blatantly contrived Canada controversy -- exactly what Trudeau needed to prevent Poilievre from having the easiest win ever.
