News flash! World War II ended 72 years ago. The Soviet Union collapsed 26 years ago. The idea that Germany or any other European country should have to depend on the United States for its defense or financial well-being is nonsense. If they have a problem with Russia’s Putin, they can work that out on their own.
There is no reason for the United States to subsidize Germany or France as they commit cultural and national suicide through their absurd open immigration policies. President Trump pointed out Merkel’s folly shortly after his inauguration.
If they wish to be known more as components of the EU as opposed to sovereign states, that is their choice. But there is no reason for American soldiers or taxpayers to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them in their lunacy.
So, if Mrs. Merkel wants to moan about how Germany can no longer “fully rely” on the U.S. now that President Trump has taken over, that’s just too bad.
More on page two.

She really means is Germany can’t rely on the US to pay her NATO bills.
Never included the US in that statement. But after 70+ years of propping up her country maybe it is time for them to rely on themselves a little!
Good this isn’t 1945 anymore. Or any other European country. Time to carry on and deal with your own issues.these countries have taken advantage of the U.S. for way to long.
Why were you doing that in the First Place and not contributing you fair obligations and funding!
Take care of yourself. Put on the big girl draws
Wrong, you$#%&!@* we have done more than our fair share, rely on yourself from now on!
Guess it wasn’t enough to rely on us to keep West Germany free of the Soviet Union, to out spend the Soviet Union in your favor and help bring it’s collapse, the end of the Berlin Wall and East Germany, the reunification of Germany as a whole!
Ungrateful$#%&!@*
Merkel is an idiot. It is America who can no longer rely on Germany. The German people are losing their country to the Muslim invasion and their too stupid to understand.
Not standing with Merkels bad ideas is only using common sense.
No not when you are so stupid by bringing all those refugees in your country.
Well hell no , they can pay to protect themselves instead of us American taxpayers footing the bill !
