Multiple European states, including the UK and France, have recently threatened sanctions against specific Israeli ministers and Spain has even suggested an arms embargo against Israel.

I believe most of these nations see Israel as an extension of the US and have long considered the US to be the benevolent overlord of Europe. Are they now doubting the reliability or benevolence of their overlord because of how volatile Trump is? I think it's fair to say the genocide would've progressed in the exact same way if Harris was president but would Europe have reacted the same way?

I guess I'm just asking for people's opinions here because it's hard to know what goes on in the minds of the demons that run Europe.

When asking if Europeans will go with racism or their disgust at Trump's crassness....

They will always choose racism; Trump is an annoyance with an expiration date, while the genocide for powerful Euros is a form of self-actualization and reaffirmation of their deeply held beliefs

I'm not sure Europe is confident in Trump's expiration date anymore. They were probably more confident during his first term but with the dems moving right in an attempt to catch up to Trump, they must know the next guy is gonna be more of the same. I also don't think they give a fuck about his crassness, I think they're worried about how to sell an American overlord that demands overt submission. Europeans have always considered themselves superior to the rest of the world but I don't think they mind an American overlord as long as they can pretend they're peers. Biden undermined Europe while smiling and shaking hands while Trump tells Europeans to eat shit.
