I mean, that's true for any democracy. The EU has its fair share of them elected to high offices.

Tell me about ways your life in the US was ever seriously negatively impacted by who got elected to the EU commission? Complaining about cookie popups or the GDPR doesn't count.

France enstated a very unpopular ruling of raising the minimum retirement age to 68 IIRC. This sets precedent and started having the US discuss the same thing. So potentially that decision will affect me long term via precedent.

I don’t think this is right. I believe they raised it to 64 which is still 3 years earlier than the US.
