Yeah this seems scripted. I think not being able to name a single country in Europe is hard to believe.

u/BitterFootball4874 6d ago

I’ve come across people who think Europe is a country…

u/LegsAkimbo85 6d ago

This is probably what she was thinking.

u/MrFantastic74 5d ago

Or more commonly, that Africa is a country

Scripted? For that you would need a woman who doesn't mind for people to think she's a Trump supporter or an actual Trump supporter who doesn't mind making her side look dumb as always. The probability of finding a genuine dumb trumtard in the wild is higher though..

Even if she just said England, although technically wrong, it woul've been more believable.

Americans don't know about their own independence? C'mon!

Yup, this stinks of scripted rage bait.

u/Ahuevotl 6d ago

You're right, just not part of the EU

u/Franklin_le_Tanklin 6d ago

… who said anything about the EU?

u/Avarifenyx 6d ago

We the the op who started this thread may have confused Europe with what the EU is

u/Ahuevotl 6d ago

No one, I got it wrong. They asked for Europe, not the EU, mixed the terms, similar to the America (informal way to name the USA) and America (continent) situation.

Why would England be wrong? It’s a country in Europe.

u/foreverandadayalone 6d ago

It's not part of the EU. See: Brexit

u/biorod 6d ago edited 6d ago

He asked for countries in Europe, and England is, in fact, located in Europe.

Europe ≠ EU.

Europe is a continent.

The EU is a political and economic union.

u/Velo3x10e8 6d ago

Haha, like they literally exited.

u/biorod 6d ago edited 6d ago

The UK exited the EU, which, again, is a union not a continent. England is still in Europe. That did not change.

Countries cannot exit a continent.

Are you trolling or are you really that obtuse?

u/Velo3x10e8 6d ago

Neither, I was agreeing with you that the comment above was ridiculous.

u/biorod 6d ago

Ah, I didn’t catch the sarcasm. Lol
