They’re trying to take down Matteo Salvini the de facto head of the Italian government whose party in the most recent election, blew everyone else out of the waters. He’s rabidly anti invaders, pro western values, and anti EU.

Merkel, the European Hillary.

Theresa May, the English Hillary.

Obama, the American Putin.
