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=58d9c36bc4b72f0dae57f50e092936523adb49e0027e39b6063ef1d22beb0213c917aab4629104bf1aa4e20a9857101a4015ff9a6443add49ea5fca823645313 . 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=58d9c36bc4b72f0dec1e5da7b2ddf6bbbba7417941ad604d505b10db13c29cfaf5b0b7b69b42e8a0183335daa94d9a27e609df3c6f1e8f1c26ad36f97ae6be38 , 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=58d9c36bc4b72f0d3f10185c4d9485c6ffdd7b0f9477bd439ad02f1ff21c06a874472349eef291906f575ee2ff7af0634c63549b330a8bf076421f13da0b6163 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. (Read our weekend profile of Ms Wagenknecht. https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=58d9c36bc4b72f0d85bb7e04f70b3e6adde7d745b5cad7826e97e899fbb182dfbe6193984d5543cb3e38461970cfd9ecf084f77d14e23ed42e1824b3a432ae15 ) Our latest Dateline history quiz is now live. 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.)

On Friday Mr Trump, asked about the prospects of a truce, moaned that if a deal would not come quickly, then “we’re going to just take a pass”. Marco Rubio has said America has “other priorities” and will turn to focus on them, perhaps within weeks, if there’s no progress. So much for the idea that the president could snap his fingers and bring peace. He neither wants to be bogged down by fiddly matters of ending a war, nor provide the military resources to help Ukraine to fight it. I suspect it is dawning on him, at last, that his leverage over Vladimir Putin is far less than he imagined. It seems clear, too, that his attention span is miserably short.<br> <br> The trouble is that in geopolitics quitting can be as costly as acting. Mr Trump has demonstrated this himself: cutting off an ally while failing to force a foe to compromise sends a clear signal that America is weak. A prime example is the scrambled exit of American forces from Afghanistan in 2021. That defeat for the superpower seemed to signal that it was unwilling to project effective power at great distances. That surely encouraged Mr Putin to get on with his full-scale invasion of Ukraine just a few months later. <br> <br> Taking “a pass” on ceasefire efforts is not the same as giving up on a real-estate deal. It would surely have big consequences. Here’s one thought: Xi Jinping will be watching closely, to see what sort of resolve and patience Mr Trump really has, or whether he’s only interested in the sugar-high moments of high drama. This matters for Mr Xi’s efforts to manage the trade war with America, and potentially for other clashes, such as over Taiwan.<br> <br> Could something yet be salvaged from all of this? Russia and Ukraine did agree to “stop all military activity” for 30 hours <a data-linkto="https://" href="https://click.e.economist.com/?qs=58d9c36bc4b72f0d1c9b6d0e53d3ed4229a5837bfef94b032eb0dcfa16292257fdde3892d7000d79d1335a394f1bbb6712a6139fd818f3dfff1687e086e6919a" style="text-decoration:none;" title="over the Easter weekend">over the Easter weekend</a>. (But note that there have previously been other, brief, attempts at short truces.) Ukraine, at least, has said it is willing to extend that to 30 days if Russia will do so. At the same time, however, some fighting continued at the weekend. My judgment is that Russia, despite its enormous loss of soldiers, increasingly feels emboldened in Ukraine. It is making real, if modest, gains on the battlefield. Mr Trump, in contrast, has shown only that he is able to put the squeeze on Ukraine, without—so far—threatening any serious consequences for Mr Putin.<br> <br> Thanks to everyone who wrote in following last week’s newsletter. I asked whether you thought a ceasefire in Ukraine was likely to happen. <b>Art L. Morin’s</b> message summed it up best. “A ceasefire in Ukraine is on the cards,” he writes. “We just need to find the cards.” See you next Sunday.</p></td></tr><tr> <td style="color:#121212;font-family:EconomistSerifOsF, Georgia, TimesNewRoman, Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:18px;line-height:25px;padding:0 0 1px 0;text-align:left;" valign="top"> </td></tr></table></td></tr></table><!-- //FULL-WIDTH CONTENT --></td></tr></table><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" role="presentation" style="min-width: 100%;
