Yes because USA Vs the world will have USA as a winner (if this is what you imply) which is 5yo thinking. EU although it still going through some growing pains, appears to be far more mature than today's USA, which is burning bridges and building walls (I mean figuratively). If/as the planet continues to decrease its dependency to USD then the might will decrease further with it. USA has the No1 debt on this planet. I don't see any other countries of that size going bust and needing to print new money every other year because they cannot afford to run their states. I am using this childish and realistic example so you include that in your thought process. As for the army, EU is in the process of considering/designing an EU army, since the "US hegemony" seems to be in deep .... with USA's latest leadership. And thank you for speeding up this process.
