Angela Merkel Issues Not-So-Subtle Warning To Donald Trump After His Presidential Win
Huff Po UK ^ | 11/9/2016 | Aubrey Allegretti

Angela Merkel has issued a carefully-worded response to Donald Trump’s election as US President, taking aim at the divisive rhetoric he used during the campaign.

While Theresa May simply congratulated Trump on his victory, Merkel said she would only offer “close cooperation” dependent on his commitment to equal rights.

The German Chancellor, who has been the driving force behind the EU’s acceptance of hundreds of thousands of refugees, said her relationship with Trump would only succeed if he upheld “the dignity of man, independent of origin”.

She added that she had - like many others - “watched the election results with trepidation”.

We’re all for equal rights - in your own country. I have no desire to fund “equal rights” for illegal immigrants.

2017 is when the people can get rid of both Merkel and Pres. Hollande in France (he of the 4% approval rating).

Yup! No more neo-con military crap. Pull our military out of these less friendly allies unless they want to pay for the cost.

I'm always impressed by self-righteous lectures from democratically elected German chancellors.

After all, Germany has historically been a bastion of tolerance and sober-minded political thought...

No offense Madame Chancellor but if we Americans, really needed your opinion or your approval, we’d march into Germny and take it.

Merkel doesn’t get it (yet). Trump’s going to withdraw from international conflicts (except ISIS) and fhe world policing duties left over from WWII and the cold war, and focus almost exclusively on domestic policy, fixing the many things broken about our country and let the rest of the world take care of itself for a change.

Trump will reach some kind of agreement with Putin, and then bow out, and let Europe fend for themselves against the Russians.

The Koreans and Japanese will be given the go ahead to build atomic bombs and build up their military and then THEY can deal with China militarily, not us.

Trump will still guard the oil in the Middle East but make the oil countries pay for the guarding.

For the first time, the world will be able to take care of itself without the backing of U.S. industrial might, because the parts of the world that matter now have their own industrial might.

This new foreign policy will be one of the major reasons Trump will be able to succeed in fixing our nation, where the Bushes, Clintons, and Obamas have failed.
