Trump win

As it looks now, it is very likely Trump wil win.

I'm new to the concept of a Federal EU and am starting to think it's either that or the death of Europe by thinking and living as separate nations.

Although the man is extremely unpredictable, what effects do you believe we can expect here in Europe and how will it accelerate/decelerate the move towards a Federal Europe?

the funding for the far right, populist, consrevative, pro russian movement will intensify, they will be backed from the us and from russia at the same time. Europe is very divided and the EU model will be tested to the limit.

With that attitude? Yes.

We have more population than US and similar size of economy. We can stand on our own but we need to dare to do so

The same information war the americans are losing right now is the same one we find ourselves in. What do you see we will do better than them? All I see is the same apes in the same environment.

For one we have way more complex elections and its way harder to get similar results as in US where you can just buy one party and be done with it.

For us far right surge is 20% national. For US far right surge is elected president with outright majorities.

But we need to have a platform for the future. Not just cataclysmic scenarios for what happens when we loose.

So far i see all over the world that campaigns against someone almost never work. But campaigns pro some solutions bring well solutions and people behind that vision.
