Internally maybe, but Trump has a way to trigger large political movements within countries.

Canada was supposed to have a large (historically large) conservative government 3 months before the latest elections, but with Trump in the white house people suddenly want to move away from the right, it's a very interesting effect.

It's not impossible that we will see something similar happen across Europe.

As recently reported on politico.eu, the absolute stupidity of Trump's desire for Canada, Greenland, Venezuela play, his foul ignorant mouth on NATO, and criticism of Euro countries has made him too risky to be associated with. He's becoming radioactive skank on parade bad.

For those in the US like me: Trump will be the single largest reason for the rise of popularist left politics here, which we don't need either.

Granted like the Marshal Tucker song "I heard it in a love song" ... "can't be wrong" Trump isn't actually popular right. Trump is about vanity and self enrichment.

As a European, I hope Trump 2.0 will do to European Trumpist movements what Brexit did to European anti-EU movements.
