So Europe seems ready to move on, but the Brits and we Americans are still stuck in the partisan mire. If so, then it seems that they are following a different 4T path than we are, assuming a successful Macron/Merkel alliance is able to advance the EU of course. If not, then Macron may be the French Obama, and we are, in fact, ahead of them on the 4T curve. Obama lead to Trump; a failed Macrom may lead to Le Pen.
It will be interesting to watch. If Europe begins to strike-out on its own, then he was a game changer, an having a more independent Europe may be a net plus ... or not. A fractured Europe can't be good for them or us.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
