European leaders, we are told, fear that their relationship with the United States could be destabilized if former President Donald Trump is reelected and pursues an America-first agenda, not one aligned to the priorities of Europe’s ruling parties.

Those European leaders should pay attention to their own constituents. After the European Parliament elections, it is clear European voters want changes similar to those being offered by Trump.

Some 360 million voters in 27 European countries went to the polls and chose 720 spots in the continentwide body that has the power to approve or amend European Union regulations and approve trade agreements.
