European settlement of North America is in part attributable to the desire of Europeans to flee religious persecution and to set up their own settlements where they could worship freely. So there was this antipathy toward the mother land from the beginning which of course culminated in the colonists achieving outright independence from the British crown. The winning of that war by the colonists was contingent upon French support.
The US reluctantly joined both World Wars but played a decisive role in both, then came the Marshall Plan and NATO. The US saved western Europe not once not twice but thrice, first in WW1, then from fascism then against the Soviet Union/Communism.
To this day Europeans are heavily dependent on the US in terms of NATO/national security but I don't think many Europeans consider Americans as cultural or intellectual equals, and this sentiment can be traced all the way back to the 18th century and the degeneracy thesis. Americans for their part are prone to look upon Europeans as effete, feckless and lacking in that derring do, frontier spirit that has come to define the American character. Europeans are thinkers, Americans are doers.
As the US changes demographically (whites of European descent decline as a percentage of population to be replaced by Asians and hispanics) and the Eurocentric mentality and institutions are challenged it will be interesting to see if and how European-American dynamics change.

US likes to go to other country and destroy what it calls "dictatorship" and yet do nothing about their own.
