German hater??? LOLOL! Meine Vorfahren waren Deutsche. Ich Han’ Deutsche geschichte gelernt und schon zweimal in Deutschland gewohnt. Das bedeutet aber nicht dass Ich die nutzlose Sitzpinkler die Deutschland heutzutage beherrschen unterstutzen muss. Scheiss ‘drauf!

Germany agreed to increase defense spending to a pitiful 2% of GDP. Their future budgets call for it to rise to 1.5%.....then sink back down. The US spends more like 4% of GDP on defense so GTFO with claims about how the Germans are doing their fair share under NATO. They aren’t.

You claim that Germany is not undermining states in Eastern Europe is ridiculous. That’s the whole point of Nordstrom I and now II - ie to cut out the “middlemen” (ie Eastern Europeans) and give Russia the flexibility to exert more leverage. Before they couldn’t cut off say Poland without also cutting off Germany and Western Europe. Now they will be able to. They will have a free hand to tighten the screws on Eastern European countries in this manner in a way they could not do previously. How can you not see that?

Nobody says Germany is expected to be “a slave state”. They’re expected to be a partner. They’re not acting like one. They’re - as usual - being extremely selfish.

How come restarting nuclear power plants is not undermining countries in Eastern Europe? Ummmm because it keeps Germany from being as dependent on Russia for its fuel? Because it would not shovel money at Russia? Because it would not provide Russia a means to exert pressure specifically against various Eastern European countries which they will be able to do when pipelines bypassing them are completed? Jesus, Think!

Trump isn’t “undermining” “allies”. He’s calling hypocritical freeloaders and leaches to account for their hypocrisy and greed. EVERY American President since the 1980s has opposed Nordstrom for obvious reasons. It’s not just Trump. Get a clue.

NATO really needs to create a children’s table for those members not meeting the 2% target. They can sit there while the adults in the 2% club make the decisions.

a level of hypocrisy and chutzpah few could manage - but it sure seems to come to the Germans easily enough.

That is a mighty strange reply.

You are contradicting yourself but judging from your strange German statement that is not a surprise.

You insist Germany must support Eastern Europe by moving energy from Russia to Germany in the way you see fit. Because Germany must support other countries. That is not how the real world works and if other countries are affected they can do something productive for themselves.

Your arguments are absurd and your reasoning is badly flawed. So you go ahead and get a clue and while you do have fun getting triggered some more:

Germany to match US contribution to NATO budget
