Europe has spilled enough blood to know what happens when governments lose authority and factions discover that intimidation works. Yet prosperity can breed the comforting delusion that yesterday’s barbarism could never return. I wouldn’t bet my child’s future on it. This could become another iteration of Europe’s recurring catastrophe if leaders excuse political violence while ordinary families pay for their paralysis. Trump is right to put American security first and demand allies capable of carrying their obligations. Friendship with Europe doesn’t require underwriting every failure. The danger grows when people stop believing lawful institutions will protect them and start looking elsewhere.
