Pretty clear choice for me. US administration are downright scum. I'd sooner we take our chances in a fragile geopolitical position than ever dance to their tune.
Start strengthening EU alliances. If we're going to play politics of convenience that's better done with China. They might be capable of things that shock us, but they also seem to value and respond to sensible economic exchange. It's becoming rapidly apparent that the US are more about Russian style domination - you can't even bargain with that.
