    Credit card processing is not hard to do, and the EU is already working on the Digital Euro, which is in many ways an equivalent.

    It’s just that it seems so pointlessly stupid to gamble the global reach of American credit card processing on Bibi Netanyahu being slightly inconvenienced by an international arrest warrant.

    And yes, ever after the cave-in at the tariff “negotiations,” I sure hope European capitals start strengthening their spines, because they will be needed soon enough. Brazil, China, and India shrugged at Trump’s threats and he blinked. Europe fell on its knees and looks increasingly like the chump.
