João Vale de Almeida believes that in the rift, Trump will 'come out on top', but not without 'huge damage' to European and global politics, in the process.
Lewis compares Trump's threats towards Musk to something that would take place in a 'mafia state', as the former Ambassador of the EU to the United States compares this behaviour to Putin's Russia.
Despite this, João Vale de Almeida believes Europe and the West 'can't give up on America' despite Trump and Musk 'lowering the levels of decency to ground zero.'
