EU Official On Trump: 'With Friends Like This'

Reprinted with permission from Shareblue.com

Under Trump, the United States has become more of an enemy of the European Union than an ally. That’s the frank assessment of Donald Tusk, one of the EU’s top officials.

Tusk, the European Council president and a former prime minister of Poland, characterized the recent diplomatic bumbling by the Trump administration in no uncertain terms.

“Looking at latest decisions of @realDonaldTrump someone could even think: with friends like that who needs enemies,” he tweeted. “Thanks to him we got rid of all illusions. We realize that if you need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of your arm.”

The European Council represents the heads of state of the European Union. So when Tusk speaks out, he does so on behalf of some of America’s closest allies on the continent.
