Susan B. Glasser, The New Yorker: How Trump Made War on Angela Merkel and Europe
The German Chancellor and other European leaders have run out of patience with the President.
This past July, on the final day of the NATO summit in Brussels, Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, proposed a closed-door emergency meeting. The emergency was Donald Trump. Minutes earlier, the President had arrived late to a session where the Presidents of Ukraine and Georgia were making their case to join NATO. Trump interrupted their presentation and unleashed a verbal assault on the members of the alliance, calling them deadbeats and free riders on American power. Trump threatened to go his “own way” if they didn’t immediately pay more for their own defense. His barrage centered on Merkel, Europe’s longest-serving democratic leader.

WNU Editor: The above post is a puff-job on the German Chancellor and on her conflict with President Trump. In the beginning of the article the above author talks about President Trump waging war against German Chancellor Merkel, but later on talks about how the German Chancellor tried to minimize and/or block President Trump's policy of convincing Europe to increase it defense budget as Europe promised on numerous occasions. If there is anyone who is waging war it is the German Chancellor, and she has been doing it since day one. But what has surprised everyone is that President Trump has responding in kind, and he has done so by pointing out how her policies are hurting the defense of Europe .... i.e. low defense budgets, economic ties with Russia, and open borders. I do not think people like Angela Merkel expected that, and it has crippled them politically. Angela Merkel's days as Chancellor are coming to an end, and other Trump critics like French President Macron are now facing riots on the streets, and poll numbers that are in the teens. And as for blaming President Trump for the fracturing of the EU. The person who should be blamed for this is German Chancellor Merkel and her policy of open borders. That changed everything, and there is now no going back.
