This Won't end Well for Germany

Truth hurts, doesn't it! I never seen somebody have such a hard time accepting it though, must be something in your Balkan DNA predisposed towards gaslighting. (Not a racial observation by the way, just a little cultural anthropology)

After that "word salad" post I am more convinced than ever that you were "dropping" something tonight.

I believe you have me confused with Big Ole Boy. That's okay though, as long as you recognize that my thought processes are generated at a considerably higher level than your own we are fine.

How long do you think the Russians were grooming Trump? Why do you think he had such an open line of credit at Deutsche Bank and nowhere else, a bank known for laundering money for Russian oligarchs?

The Money Behind Trump’s Money (Published 2020)

The inside story of the president and Deutsche Bank, his lender of last resort.

Better terms? A bank willing to have a larger line of credit. It is not like hes getting a $10,000 line of credit. Trump has been tougher on Russia than Obama or Biden. Many Democrats were pissed when they learned we would give arms to Ukraine to defend against Russia, which was not done under Obama. I would trust the Enquirer before fake news NYtimes after all of their fake news, especially concerning Trump and Russia.

The Germans are now pushing for a "United States of Europe", with Merkel gone:

Martin Schulz wants 'United States of Europe' within eight years

France is also interested, as are other countries. I suppose the recent problems with Russia are providing some additional motivation.

As far as energy. Germany wants a clean environment, and so does France. Europe has been doing a good job in that respect. They will continue to push for clean energy, with natural gas providing a stop gap until environmentally clean forms of energy get further developed.

Long term the only way to go is clean energy. Trump was right to take advantage of our oil and gas reserves to fill these stop gap needs before they are absolutely no longer needed for energy - say in 30+ years.

Idiot Democrat voters are unfortunately idiots, just like the people they vote into office.

Funds were released on September 11th and were never cancelled. Obama would not help with military aid when Russia took Crimea. It was such a strong case that Democrats had to lie constantly about the call and misquoted it on purpose. Schiff even made up some silly conversation that never occured. Biden and others were involved in corruption in Ukraine. Will Biden act if Russia invades Ukraine? Well it depends how much $$$ he gets.

How about my former Gov. Rick Perry?

Trump blamed Rick Perry for the whole Ukraine scandal, but that's the opposite of the truth

Within a day of the whistleblower complaint being made public, Donald Trump had identified what seemed like a very unlikely candidate for First Person to Go Under the Bus: Secretary of Energy Rick Perry. Despite saying that his phone call to Ukrainian...

While former Vice President Joe Biden oversaw foreign policy in Ukraine, his son Hunter Biden served on the board of Burisma Holdings, the largest gas company in the fledgling democracy.
Despite a recently concluded investigation by Senate Republicans that found no wrongdoing by the Bidens, claims to the contrary have continued to circulate on social media.

I don't believe we wrote their budgets for them, I'd guess because they thought someone bail them out if there was trouble. But a little over 2 years ago, my tax dollars hielped pay for this from NPR:

Under Trump, NATO Nations Get More U.S. Troops And Military Spending

Despite the president's criticism of the alliance, his administration has spent far more on a European defense program than did the Obama White House. U.S. troop levels in Europe have also risen.

I don't think we've "abandoned" NATO, but we've told Vlad that we didn't think there was much we could do if he invaded UKraine.

NATO's Response Force (NRF) of 50,000 is on standby.
