Makes you realize what a shitshow the U.S. Government is at the moment.

The way this picture is representing “family, bond, comradeship and trust” is so strong – whoever thought of this setting has been in political marketing for a long time (or a natural talent).
US will never be able to get this setting, even if it tried it’s best, it would still look fake.
Welcome to the next 4 years of The US destroying itself from within.

I’m neither American nor European but I must say this feels really calm and human. Specially after seeing thousands of posts about American politics

I find it funny on some Americans here (Mostly, Trump and Musk supporters) feel butthurt from this pic and try to find faults because this actually look genuine and interesting and deep down they know that Trump, Musk and their entourages will never “down to earth” to sit and eat with them on the table.

This is the essence of Europe nowadays. Leaders of european countries are often chill and behave like mates. Not like in the old days when egos ran high and illusions of grandeour were the norm. Sure, we have a few bad apples and downright traitors to their own people and the continent, but it’s nowhere near as fucked up as it used to be.
Viva Europa.

God something about this picture realllly put into perspective how dire everything is. At just a glance, these feel so completely more formal then Trump ever has. Then you remember each of these 4 have an entire country and military backed up behind them.

It’s the right reaction. Time to show unity in Europe, that we don’t take it when someone threatens one of our countries.

That’s my ideal Spanish government for the next ten years. We really need a Scandinavian make over.

English person here. Called being civilised and not eating Maccy D’s unlike the new Führer of the USA. I am truly scared for my country’s future but having met lots of Danes through work, visited their county and Iceland my eyes have been opened to what is possible for a better world.

They seem to have picked president Stubb instead of prime minister Orpo so they don’t have to speak english. Smart move. Very hygge.

I once held a business meeting in my garden. We were at a company fair and found a business who potentially could be a very good partner to us. Anyway, we were 1,5h from our one office and 3h from our other office so I recommended a place (my backyard). No one knew in advance but to be honest, it went very well! I think corporate/political culture is waaaay too stiff and serious and can benefit from being a bit less stuck up all the time. I like to be the rebel and just introduce small changes here and there.
By the way I work at a very serious multi billion dollar company and got into a bit of trouble for it – but essentially got a “break the culture for free” pass after we succesfully sold our first project together lol.
