 We all need to develop a concrete strategy to bring the US in full support of recognizing national boundaries and sovereignty. I believe it can be done, but it will require fresh thinking and concrete plans to do this state-by-state in the US. Absorb some pain en route and plan toward success in the months ahead. That's how I would deal with this. Throwing rolls of paper towels or bottles of wine back and forth across the Atlantic is only going to result in soggy towel and spilled wine.
