Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin is accusing Donald Trump of wanting to destabilize the unhelpful European Union:

As President Trump heads to Europe next month for the NATO summit and then a historic meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, his personal attacks on the European Union and other pillars of the Western order are overshadowing his own administration’s attempts to reassure allies that the United States still believes in the transatlantic project it has led since the 1940s.

During a private meeting at the White House in late April, Trump was discussing trade with French President Emmanuel Macron. At one point, he asked Macron, “Why don’t you leave the E.U.?” and said that if France exited the union, Trump would offer it a bilateral trade deal with better terms than the E.U. as a whole gets from the United States, according to two European officials. The White House did not dispute the officials’ account, but declined to comment.

Well as a matter of fact, that's actually a very good idea for France to withdraw from the EU, along with other countries, because the EU's not delivering on important subjects like combating terrorism and keeping the continent safe. Every individual country should have the right to self-governence and just as good, make it possible to run a capitalist lifestyle. Trouble is, Macron may not agree. But all that aside, I think Trump's idea is a good one, and Rogin would do well to just let go of the subject already, and not side with the crummy EU, when their politics are doing nothing to improve the continent's interests.
