What is really happening here is DW and Bild are stoking Euro-paranoia.

Merkel keeps trying to establish a World Government. The EU was the start. All these little sides....Iran, Climate Change, unfair trade laws....were to create a super power....And Germany wants it to be THEIR World Government.

Their problem is not Trump. It’s immigration.

They should look to Trump as an inspiration, as the Brexit people do.

Because the Germans have such a great history of warning the world about politicians who represent a grave threat to humanity.

So, it gets a little chilly in Germany in the winter. I wonder how they would feel if Russia just shut down the pipeline unless the Germans agree to pay double or triple?

Well, yeah. Trump's pro-America policies are hurting Germany while Russia is selling Germany oil cheap.

What a crock of it! Germans won’t even pay their share of NATO expenses. They promised 2% but never come up with much over 1%. Their army is worthless as it is forbidden to be in combat zones. Maybe they are good for directing traffic in Berlin, but not much else. We have protected them all these years at our expense, rebuilt their country and their economy and they are just waiting to stab us in the back. I hope Trump bankrupts the European Union. Individual countries should regain their sovereignty instead of being ruled by a bunch of UNELECTED bureaucrats.

Notice how the Germans take it upon themselves to declare all of Europe theirs. They say Trump wants to weaken Europe, uh excuse me, no. Trump wants to reign in Germany from sucking on the US public teat.

PS to Germans. Europe is not all yours. Stay in your own confined territory.

eff ‘em

Germany is of no benefit, and of no interest to the US.

None. Zilch. Nada.

There is absolutely no good reason for the US to remain in NATO, nor for US forces to remain in Germany.

Most certainly they do not warrant our Article V commitment. If Russia were to occupy the entire country tomorrow, the world would be a better place the following day.

Many disagree. But they have nothing but platitudes in response.

The EU is coming apart, and Germany’s Forth Reich along with it.

DW is the German government’s foreign propaganda bureau.

Barnhardt : Tell me, Hilda, does all this frighten you? Does it make you feel insecure?

Hilda : Yes, sir, it certainly does.

Barnhardt : That’s good, Hilda. I’m glad.

Its more like they’re worried Trump is going to derail the Gravy Train whereby they get to freeload off of America for their national defense and get the benefit of an unbalanced sweetheart trade deal with America.

The Germany has been thought of as the economic engine of the EU. Dig below the surface, and a lot of that success is due to their trade deficit against the U.S. and other countries. They’ve been benefiting by selling more and at higher prices to other countries, which would account for many points or all of the points in their economic rate of growth. Take away their tariff advantages, and their economy would be lackluster or perhaps even show negative “growth”.

Germans fear that Trump’s and Putin’s alpha male tendencies could collide

So says Europe run mostly by women. Feminist politics are spending their countries into oblivion with social programs and importing Muslim Colonists turning Europe into a "multicultural" sh*hole. I would suspect a poll of Eastern Europe would have a different regional and world view. One day USA and Russia may have to clean up Western Europe's mess.
