During his European trip President Trump called on NATO Countries to honor their financial commitment to NATO and refused to commit to the Paris Accord on climate change for now.
Merkel responded by opining in a speech in Munich how it is clear Europe, not just Germany, can not rely on the US any longer.
End of an era: Merkel signals that Europe can no longer rely on the U.S. - Hot Air
“The times in which we could completely depend on others are on the way out. I’ve experienced that in the last few days,” Merkel told a crowd at an election rally in Munich, southern Germany."
In true 'Leftist' fashion, Merkel attacked the messenger who had the nerve to point out that Germany is one of the leading members of NATO who have not honored their word and financial commitments to the organization. Much like the U.N., Merkel has been all too willing to benefit from an alliance / organization while shirking its responsibilities and taking the U.S. for granted / as 'suckers', allowing the US to do all the 'heavy lifting', so to speak. When asked to actually HONOR their word / commitment they lash out at the person pointing out their shirking their responsibility.
Time for your country / you to pull your weight, Merkel. Don't blame Trump for your being called to honor your word in front of the whole world.
