One thing to keep in mind when discussing US foreign policy: the majority of Americans aren't quite sure the EU exists as an independent entity with agency.  The second thing is: of those who do think the EU is an independent entity with agency the majority think the EU exists only to inhibit or prevent the US from doing what it wants to do anytime it wants to do it.
