My recent trip to Brussels for the NATO Ministerial meeting left me with one overriding impression:

...the US has long failed to address the glaring inconsistency between its relations with NATO and the EU. - Christopher Landau@DeputySecState

These are almost all the same countries in both organizations.

• When these countries wear their NATO hats, they insist that Transatlantic cooperation is the cornerstone of our mutual security. 
• But when these countries wear their EU hats, they pursue all sorts of agendas that are often utterly adverse to US interests and security—including censorship, economic suicide/climate fanaticism, open borders, disdain for national sovereignty/promotion of multilateral governance and taxation, support for Communist Cuba, etc etc. 

This inconsistency cannot continue. 

Either the great nations of Europe are our partners in protecting the Western civilization that we inherited from them or they are not. 

But we cannot pretend that we are partners while those nations allow the EU’s unelected, undemocratic, and unrepresentative bureaucracy in Brussels to pursue policies of civilizational suicide.
