Trump Is Right. Germany Pays Russia Billions Of Dollars For Oil And Gas
Common Sense Evaluation ^

Trump is right. Germany pays Russia billions of dollars for oil and gas, which Russia spends improving its very well equipped new military. So Germany wants the US to provide defense against a possible aggressor, whose armed forces are all but funded by Germany?

The British broke away from Europe (Brexit) because they determined that Europe was more of a burden to them than a benefit — and, unlike America’s taxpayers, the British weren’t spending billion’s of dollars annually on Europe’s defense.

It’s time for Amerexit.

Anyone they want. Why is the U.S. subsidizing NATO to protect Germany from Russia while Germany sends $10 billion a year to Russia? Does that make any sense at all?

Israel found a YUUUGE gas field off their coast. What’s wrong with that?

it’s rather odd that everybody gets to talk to and do business with Russia, except anyone in the US. Why is that?

Why do we buy oil and subsidize Saudi Arabia when they have terrorist training grounds and provided a base for the 9/11 terrorists?

As I mentioned earlier, Russia is a two fold issue. Enriched, they can and could be a problem to Western Europe. Broke, they may be an even bigger threat because they are desperate.

Reminds me of the Molotov Ribbentrop Treaty of August 1939.
