You might think it is over attitudes to food or sport, policy towards China or something about the guardrails needed for capitalism. Not a bit of it. The biggest split is over cars. Americans expect to drive huge ones, ideally something that has the heft and noise of an elephant. Europeans are far likelier to opt for smaller beasts. When an American friend once visited, renting a stylish but tiny Fiat 500 at the airport, his teenage daughter was mortified, announcing it was obviously a toy vehicle and not fit for the road. Admittedly, Europeans are also driving bigger cars than they used to https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1ee6458f2e226ea848fa489c85850bdb1d5d18529120c1388e2eb7cab3d3ca0a0e5531b74c9a535822d7dd94aa80714bc0e496ac3e9d02cc53 . But Americans increasingly prefer monsters, relishing the thrill of revving up a big truck and judging that, for drivers and their passengers, bigger vehicles bring more safety. Unfortunately, as we set out in a new article published this weekend https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1efcd127fc2f41f292c267ef0370688b0f2365ffb48aa29be12a31cc137fa5734475b2d7a39179f3c9ffcaa48d79da4030aa27838eaf94b12a , this is becoming a fatal trend for others on or near the road. The monsters increasingly flatten pedestrians, cyclists and drivers of smaller cars. Last year one pollster noted that 41% of Americans thought SUVs and pickup trucks had grown too big. Too right. Germany is on our minds today. State elections in the east of the country are usually not of huge interest to outsiders, but the two held today help to show how strong extremists are becoming in the political system. The hard-right Alternative for Germany, which stirs up support on the back of hostility to refugees and other migrants, looks to have come top https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1e585fdc4a0aa5c6a87cd1ec43434656b72415c40f5bf21a86bc7dcbf185cac31064d77eb8adba52b4cb56399fba376264db83daefe5648225 in Thuringia and appears to have run the conservative Christian Democratic Union close in Saxony—though it won’t be in government in either state. On the hard left, the party of Sahra Wagenknecht, a pro-Russian opposition leader who is hostile to migrants, seems to have come third in both places.

Do you remember the year DVDs were launched? Or when Jack the Ripper prowled the streets of London? I certainly didn’t. Finally, our caption competition has been drawing you in in ever greater numbers. Thank you all for voting and for your suggested captions. This week I’ve chosen an image that we used on our cover in 2017. Back then we asked whether social media posed a threat to democracy. What caption would you write for it, or Mark Zuckerberg, today? Write to me at economisttoday@economist.com mailto:economisttoday@economist.com?subject=Caption%20context . Last week we asked you to vote on a shortlist of three suggestions for an image of an overstretched businessman. The winners, by a long stretch, were Keith Parr, David Paterson and Jim, who all proposed “Elon-gated”. Finally, we now want your votes on which of the following three ideas work best with the image, below, of Kamala Harris. You can vote for your favourite entry by clicking the blue tick below your favourite entry. (When you click you’ll be taken to The Economist’s website, but don’t worry—your vote will be registered.)

It’s the sound of Vladimir Putin rubbing his hands with glee as America does his bidding in Europe.

Vance and Volodymyr Zelensky. Mr Zelensky behaved foolishly. He might have been tired or frustrated, but should not have let himself be goaded by America’s vice-president. Mr Vance behaved shamefully. He set out to provoke and belittle the Ukrainian leader. Mr Trump then piled in, delighted to see his vice-president again behaving as an attack dog. The sad result is that Ukraine looks <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1ec9a377728362106f318c5600c5c529305c7f30bd0e72482fc6ee6754fff0d08c9a7f0f4ece8e2203ce9676140ac44c7ca34a87a9d6c5fd2f" style="text-decoration:none;" title="more isolated from America">more isolated from America</a> than before.<br> <br> Now European leaders, again, must scramble to see what pieces they can pick up. Emmanuel Macron and Sir Keir Starmer had both pulled off what seemed like successful visits to Mr Trump—but note how America still sided with Russia and other autocracies when voting on resolutions at the UN on Ukraine. Today, European leaders gathered for a second emergency summit, this time in London, to see how their countries can do more to support Ukraine against Russia and, in turn, defend themselves. This summit is newly significant. Europe must act far more forcefully, and quickly, than it has managed so far. That means taking decisions to rapidly increase defence spending and production—and a great deal more. <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1e3efd24b4653ec14d000638cc506e1d288b8f92f96f0ab38931bfb9a9c2ff846f92a12696e98d75c728854d917309bc88dcb573d896f5dd4a" style="text-decoration:none;" title="Read our leader">Read our leader</a> setting out how Europe must now act in the face of a growing Russian threat. And watch for our analysis of the summit’s outcome, which we will publish shortly.<br> <br> Where does this leave Mr Trump with his voters? His berating of Ukraine’s leader, formerly a close ally of America, undoubtedly cheered his Trumpian base. Leading Republican figures (though few warm to Mr Vance) spoke out loudly against Mr Zelensky. More generally, the sight of America turning against old allies with threats to seize their territory and natural resources, or to impose high tariffs (another deadline looms this week), or to abandon old security guarantees, has not fazed voters. Polls show Mr Trump remains popular. He goes into his annual address to Congress on Tuesday feeling he is riding high.<br> <br> Yet there are concerning signs for him. We have just published an article that observes how his arrival in the White House has both coincided with, and is causing, some early weakness in the American economy. Consumer and investor sentiment is dipping, especially because people increasingly expect inflation to rise again. The housing market is in a funk. Investors may be growing wary over the cost of tariffs. Meanwhile Elon Musk’s effort to cut waste among federal civil servants is causing chaos—it is not obvious that it will deliver notable savings. <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1eb5131fe4282c1558ec12a5f87ffd987d04a7aaa1d757da5ee302813ea15a919fa57183e146da71a2842dc354d680d78f3c75953d220a2e65" style="text-decoration:none;" title="Read our analysis">Read our analysis</a> of the risk of a Trumpian economic slowdown.<br> <br> For a Sunday break, play our regular weekend games: a new <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1e9b4d92acc30a07021d8e3d9051db6d0cadcf049b4bc880b2c302361c62f64e9fe5399393e7e3e6dadd6d909cec4a30b5c03856484408c005" style="text-decoration:none;" title="mini crossword">mini crossword</a>, our <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1e523d54b861c0637fb7674248a01e90dc1152081896ebe80b738a0ce282edc36a8ebdf686b60dfccfdb3a108a968df31eb7a51efc48633d99" style="text-decoration:none;" title="Dateline history quiz">Dateline history quiz</a> and our <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=96354dc1f4df6e1e950211c0d13b09300f80b55d7f872a81298e51e0447eac38e3438315a205b43ab908622fd223b57543dcf40d7a55744ee28a299857fe31e5" style="text-decoration:none;" title="pint-sized news quiz">pint-sized news quiz</a>.<br> <br> I also recommend our weekly tracker from our archive, of how <i>The Economist</i> covered the end of the second world war.
