Here Are 5 Uncomfortable Facts Showing How Bad Europe is compared to America:

1. Mississippi, which is the poorest state in the entire country is now wealthier than Europe's top economies - Wealthier than the UK, Italy, France, Germany and Spain.

2. European spending power is collapsing. Disposable income for the average American is now 80% higher than UK or French citizens, and 50% higher than German citizens.

3. European counties have stagnated. Nvidia alone is worth more than Germany, France and UK stock markets combined. In a fun and zippy twist, Nvidia is worth more than the entire Canadian economy.

4. Europe has the lowest fertility rate of any continent. Using the current trajectory Europe will cease to exist in 100 years due to the failing fertility rate.

5. Europe is not competitive in anything related to high tech. Not blockchain, crypto, robotics, AI, space technology or drones. Absolutely nothing.

So, when Europeans say that the United States thinks we're better than they are, they're right. We do.
 

DAVOS: THE SHORT VERSION(NO FLUFF)(Sorry for the photo, nothing personal to my EU friends)

Let me give you the compressed version of what actually happened at Davos. Donald Trump What he said (synopsis):
•America is done subsidizing bad trade deals
•Sovereignty matters more than global consensus
•Greenland is strategic and negotiable
•Leverage beats lectures
Tone: Direct. Blunt. Very American.
Observation (mine, not medical):
He looked very tired.
Not weak, just worn down.
I genuinely hope he’s okay.
Impact: He reset the room. Davos stopped being theoretical.⸻

The “Fed guy” — Scott Bessent (U.S. Treasury)
What he said (synopsis):
•Markets aren’t panicking
•U.S. debt is fine
•Europe is overreacting
•“Take a breath”Translation:America isn’t scared, and we’re not slowing down to make Europe feel comfortable.

Why Europe hated it:They expected reassurance.
They got dismissal.⸻ Trade —

Jamieson Greer (USTR)What he said (synopsis):
•Tariffs are not radical, they’re historical
•Free trade hollowed out the U.S. middle class

•Balance matters more than ideologyTranslation:
Globalism didn’t fail accidentally. It failed structurally.

Why Davos didn’t like it: He challenged the core religion of the room.⸻

Energy — Chris Wright What he said (synopsis, reported from closed sessions):
•Energy security comes before climate theater
•Oil and gas still matter
•Supply beats slogans
Important:
These remarks were reported from closed-door meetings
.I cannot confirm a public Davos speech transcript.Why it mattered: It exposed the gap between elite narratives and physical reality.⸻
Howard Lutnick — Commerce Secretary What he said (reported, not verbatim):
•Europe’s energy policy is delusional
•Coal works when renewables don’t
•America isn’t apologizing for winning
Reaction:Jeers. Walkouts.
Christine Lagarde reportedly left early.
Was it harsh? Yes. Even by American standards. Was it intentional?Absolutely. Sometimes clarity requires friction.⸻

Emmanuel MacronWhat he did (synopsis):
•Warned against U.S. “coercion”
•Framed America as destabilizing
•Played the familiar moral authority card
Reality:Same speech.Same posture.
Different decade.Boring.⸻

Ursula von der Leyen What she said (synopsis):
•Europe will lead the “largest free trade bloc in the world”
•Focus on South America / “Latin America”•
Regional partnerships are the futureTranslation: Globalism isn’t dead, it’s being rebranded.

What this really was: Globalism light. Same system.New label. America not invited.⸻

Mark Carney Now this part matters.
Trump warned Mark Carney to watch his tone in public remarks about U.S. policy.
Trump wasn’t tolerating proxy criticism, even from allies.
His speech was the same as always: Globalist Chit chat⸻

THE BIG PICTURE (WHY THIS WAS A SMACKDOWN) Europe wasn’t offended because Americans were rude. Europe was offended because America stopped pretending. Davos runs on:
•Polished language
•Managed outcomes
•Consensus without accountability

America showed up with:
•Leverage
•Direction
•Consequence Yes, it was harsh. Yes, it was uncomfortable. But here’s the thing: After all the outrage…after all the editorials…Deals still happened. Including Greenland.Yes: Trump and Greenland came to an agreement. See the structure European leadership? Try it sometime.Intent. Planning.Action.Delivery.Results.

Only the motherfucking legend Donald J. Trump...the one and only...could stare down the world's most vicious dictators, rogue regimes, and terrorist shitholes, hammer out real fucking peace in the Middle East, and then have the balls to make those bastards PAY America for the honor of our ironclad protection and unmatched leadership.

Abraham Accords? That wasn't some weak-ass handshake photo-op. That was billions...fucking BILLIONS...in economic windfall pouring straight into American pockets while the rivers of blood finally dried up. No endless wars, no body bags coming home...just pure, unadulterated wins.

And NATO? Those freeloading European deadbeats who’d been stiffing us for decades finally coughed up TRILLIONS they goddamn owed because Trump threatened to walk the fuck away. He exposed their parasitic bullshit and forced them to pay up like the spineless bitches they are.

No other gutless politician...none of these corrupt, bought-off, globalist cocksuckers...has ever had the raw killer instinct to pull this off. They piss away our treasure, sell out our sovereignty, and pat themselves on the back for their "sophisticated diplomacy" while America gets fucked raw.

Stella is dead fucking right, and anyone with half a brain knows it: Trump is the sole apex predator with the unbreakable spine, the lethal precision, and the genius-level dealmaking to deliver actual world peace...AND make America filthy rich in the process.

The rest of these swamp creatures? Pathetic, treasonous grifters who’d sell their own mothers for a Davos applause line.

Trump doesn’t just win. He dominates. He eviscerates. He collects.

Absolute. Fucking. Legend. Also... Share Stella's post below... It's quite triggering to the left. We love to keep them triggered.
