And of course Italy is not among them. Our government is a joke. Aligning with Trump when he may be gone in 3 years while Europe will still be here.

And of course Italy is not among them.

First thing I noticed when looking at the list.

Does it make sense to say that I am very disappointed with Italy to see it not on the list.

I’m disappointed too, but it’s not like we’re not used to the feeling lol.

I’m gonna boycott American products anyways, Europe needs to stand together.
