Sometimes there are stories that are just completely laughable.
One such story is that the President of European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, says that if Trump continues to urge the break up of the European Union, he will back the independence of Ohio and Austin, Texas. Really? Ohio, a state, and Austin, a city will secede from the United States? Obviously, we need to send him a map.
Trump's comments are not going to break up the European Union. The "Union" has been in serious trouble for years and the exit of the United Kingdom was only the beginning. I think Jean-Claude Juncker should focus in on why this is happening and what is needed to keep his European Union together.
