The same trend is occurring here. We are an aging population with a massive national debt of $20 trillion and an unfunded liability of over $100 trillion in the form of our entitlement programs. We will double our population over 65 in the next 15 years and one out of five will be over 65.

Yes and God forbid they should promote family growth policies to solve the population problem. But I guess once you forget you are even a nation it doesn’t matter who lives there. So “Germany” could be filled with Indonesians it’s all the same to them.

When Germany surrenders to the jihadis—why should we pay to defend them from Russia? Islam is worse than Putin.

There are rising nationalist movements throughout Europe, including Germany. They are fed up with the globalists who are destroying their national identity. These immigrants and refugees are not assimilating. This problem will only grow and will cause increasing civil unrest and violence.

>>Anyone who opposes their new religion is a heretic<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

As I see it, their globalist-environmentalist-socialist philosophy is pure SATANIC FALSE RELIGION.

We MUST oppose it.

When you suck everything out of your nation for your socialist agenda and leave scraps for your nation’s defense, does the United States carry your water? With $trillions in debt because of socialism, America has to trim their foreign aid.

Merkel blasting Trump is yet another vindication for Trump voters.

Exactly, what does he think he’s gonna do, follow Trump around the world to neutralize him? If Obama visits POTUS’s next destination before or during the same time frame, he needs to be called out on it. Not that he’ll care.

Germany is not “the West.” Germany has never been “the West.” Germany has sought the destruction of “the West” in two major wars in the last century. Germany, in its globalist ambition, seeks the destruction of “the West.”

It's worse than that...it's not just through two World Wars that Germany has been trying to destroy Europe.Funny that voters would elect an EAST German as leader and seem to approve whole-heartedly of her policies over the last couple of years.

Well, they did support a fair number of deterrent forces in the Cold War years. The Pershing IIs were at least a reasonable attempt to counter the Soviet SS20s. Sure, there were the usual rogue's gallery of protestors and peaceniks and eventually the missiles were removed when the Soviet state collapsed, but for awhile we had at least a modicum of credible deterrent in Western Europe. We also had any number of bases there that gave us a forward presence both in ground forces and air power.

While not being a huge military presence in the NATO lineup, W. Germany did provide us basing options which were valuable given the likely route that a Soviet land invasion might have taken. On balance, it was probably to our advantage to have those facilities available to us. Better that than nothing.

Translation: Trump Has ‘Weakened’ The West Progressives of advancing Germany’s way of thinking. And.... we liked Obie’s “I know nothing” policy. Trump seems to know and understand way too much.

this is actually quite good. If germany thinks they’ll have to go it alone—then they will pony up more for defense. and maybe some guys will figure out how to run that country.

A German friend says Germany can’t make it economically without US bases and civilian jobs. Time for Trump to destroy every base and bring back our troops. With friends like this, we don’t need enemies.
