Vice President JD Vance delivered a powerful speech in Germany, urging leaders to stand with America in the fight for greater freedoms and an end to unchecked illegal immigration. However, some European elites in the audience seemed to miss the mark on Vance’s message.
Conservative scholar Victor Davis Hanson offered a humorous yet insightful analysis on why these EU leaders failed to grasp Vance’s points. According to Hanson, they are akin to the international version of the Democrats, preferring ideological purity over prosperity. Vance’s call to join the West in its values and principles seemed to fall on deaf ears, as these leaders continue to cling to failed policies like open borders, illegal immigration, censorship, deindustrialization, and green power.
Hanson’s comments on Newsmax echoed his sentiments, likening the EU leaders to being impotent in their approach to governance. He highlighted how Donald Trump and the MAGA movement are not just saving the United States but also setting an example for the West. The EU should take notes from Trump’s bipartisan approach and adopt policies that prioritize national interests and economic growth.
In essence, Hanson emphasized that European leaders should heed Vance’s message and embrace a more pragmatic and bipartisan approach to governance. By following the example set by Trump and prioritizing policies that benefit their countries, they can steer their nations towards prosperity and success. It’s time for EU leaders to set aside their ideological differences and focus on what truly matters for the well-being of their people.
