A ridiculous European radical chic left: they cry out against Trump’s fascism and come up with new arguments that don’t hold water. They have invented a new difference: on the one hand Atlanticism and on the other hand the West, as if the EU wasn’t the fruit of the Atlantic relationship. They don’t understand that the number one problem of the USA has only one name: China. And therefore, from their point of view, it makes sense to try to separate Russia from China. So the EU has an opportunity to finally become a real political entity with the Brits in it

During these hours, rivers of ink are spilled about the irrelevance of the EU, everyone has their own opinion, but no one is talking about how to change the treaties to adapt them to the times. If we don't start there, get the British back in and give the European Parliament more powers, it's unlikely that anything good and democratic will ever come of it. We will remain victims of the Franco-German rivalry and the German obsession with public finances on the one hand, and the French Napoleon syndrome on the other. As for constitutional engineering, it doesn't take a genius, just inspiration from the Swiss constitution. We have to talk about it: the rhetoric that Trump is ugly and bad is childish and only serves to further postpone problems that are obvious to everyone. 

A certain European left, as usual, confuses form with substance. Some would say that form is substance, but we have to look at certain phenomena objectively: it's childish to talk about a difference between Atlanticism and the West, because they are two sides of the same coin. Screaming about the fascist danger when talking about Trump is pointless, also because in the United States there is a constitution with solid checks and balances that still exists. Trump's attempt to separate the Russians from the Chinese, however belated, has its raison d'être from his point of view. For many years, the United States has been asking Europe to make a greater financial and political commitment to defense. This does not contradict, but rather reinforces, the need for Europe to play a more prominent role on the international stage. It also reinforces the idea of a common European defense, which can only develop as an integral part of the Atlantic Alliance. But to do this, we need to start again in the spirit of the post-war treaties. We had 80 years to build a state and we didn't succeed. And yet the friendship between the peoples of the continent has grown. 

Of course, to do this, we must have the courage to start again from the one thing that should unite the peoples of Europe as one people: God. 

As is done in the best constitutional traditions of the West. 

Here is an example of what the preamble of a new European constitution would sound like, following the example of the Swiss constitution: 

In the name of Almighty God!
The peoples and states of Europe,
Conscious of their responsibility for the creation
Resolved to renew their alliance in order to strengthen freedom, democracy, independence and peace in a spirit of solidarity and openness to the world
Determined to live together in mutual consideration and respect for their diversity
Conscious of their common achievements and of their responsibilities towards future generations
and in the knowledge that only those who exercise their freedom remain free, and that the strength of a people is measured by the well-being of its most vulnerable members.
