As a democracy

That's an exaggeration.

the US voted for Trump

Yup.

We've another 4 years of this tariff bullshit, and his threats to annex Canada / Greenland, and him siding with Putin.

That may be pessimistic (as he may die first) or optimistic (as he may not allow another election - he is already talking about next term).

This isn't punishment, this is the EU not siding with the bullies

Yup.
