Europeans push back at US over claim they face 'civilizational erasure'

5. No one in the world looks at the Trump regime and says "that's what I call civilization"

It's literally true that Trump doesn't know what the word means. To him, it means "people who look like me" (and he is obsessed with looks - that "central casting" crap, that no one else has said for half a century). Civilization is a government and law enforcement that is subject to the rule of law, advances in science like vaccines or ways of combatting climate change, that kind of thing.
