Murican here. We aren’t even our own ally. Any country that considers us an ally is looking through rose-tinted goggles at what we could be, and clinging to that fantasy while ignoring what we are.
We need to get our shit together and actually keep it that way for at least a few decades before I’d expect any measure of trust from the global community.
Until then, yeah I wouldn’t sign any agreements with the US that extend past a presidential administration cuz as soon as a relatively good one leaves, we’re liable to put another hue-shifted Hitler in power.
Also American here. The very stupid but correct answer is that America is an ally of Europe when the president is a Democrat, and America is not at all an ally when the president is a Republican. Which sadly means we cannot be a trusted ally and Europe would be wise to buy weapons elsewhere and create alliances elsewhere.

Took the words out of my mouth, the USA is the enemy of its own citizens!
