Only when Trump comes to directly threaten the interests of EU imperialism, by sharing his plans to annex Greenland, and to impose tariffs on imports from any EU country that does not accept his plans, do the EU politicians begin to bleat lamely. Interestingly, and contrary to the claims of Starmer and the British media, even the lame bleating of the EU, in the face of Trump's threats were enough to force him to capitulate as before (TACO). But, as before, he is likely to return to those threats.
The liberal, Democrat politicians in the US, such as Governor Newsom of California, have relied on the US capitalist state to fight their battles against Trump, with varying degrees of success, given the craven nature of many of these officials, and given that Trump has stacked some of them with his appointees. Now, rather than risk unleashing the forces of the US working-class, by appealing to them, Newsom prefers to lament the failure of his fellow bourgeois politicians in the UK and EU to come to the aid of the Democrats, and US ruling-class.
Starmer continues to act as Trump's mouthpiece in Europe, though the words are muffled as they appear from deep inside Trump's arse, where Starmer has been stuck for the last year, as he tries to reconcile his continued, disastrous support for Brexit, with the increasing irrelevance of Britain, and its dependence on the EU for its economic survival. Starmer's gut wrenching sycophancy is only exceeded by that of the slimey head of NATO mark Rutte, a truly cretinous human being even compared with fictional characters such as Dickens' Uriah Heep. LBC's, Simon Marks made clear what is wrong with the continued argument of James O'Brien that, given Brexit, Starmer has no option but to try to appease Trump.
