    Merkel, Europe’s de facto leader, told a packed beer hall rally in Munich that the days when her continent could rely on others was “over to a certain extent. This is what I have experienced in the last few days.”
    That sounds extremely familiar to me, and I know what this exact setting led to the last time it happened.

    Well Grumpy, not to defend her flexible and equally unspeakable stance in any kind of way, but to me it looks merely like she attempts to somehow simply keep some kind of a profile as a “hardened personality”, because don’t forget this is an election year in Germany, but quite a few more Germans (apart from myself) increasingly start to smell the coffin of her general falsehood, fingers crossed and hopefully the majority of the people will end up being the better of her within less than a few months.

    So in a sense I’ll pray for her own personal 9 eleven ’17 (election happens to be this September) as she will definitely won’t get my vote…

    PS.: the expression “de facto leader(ess)” sums it all up best, love it …

    I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC

    Merkel is being told to go against Trump by the same people in Washington and Wall Street that are after him. It does not matter what Trump does – he will be demonised.

    There is a German federal election coming up later this year and her bosses may be thinking to dump her – like they dumped Fillion and took on Macron. Possibly she wants to show her worth.

    Her Christian Democrats are expected to win but she herself may lose out on popularity. However if she cannot convince Mario Draghi of the ECB to stop QE and raise interest rates then the Germans may see the first monetary deflation since 1929 which is a big psychological problem for them.

    The Germans as a people care about one major thing – the economy. They will put up with a lot but they will never tolerate a deflation (immigration is not there yet). This is where they vividly remember the Great Depression – this is where history comes in for them. It’s in their genes.

    This will go against her and her party – there may be a closer election and it impacts on the clear majority in parliament that she needs to carry out policies. This includes am EU army and sanctions against Russia.

    Everyone can see she is a weak and indecisive with no one respecting her – like France’s Hollande. Her days appear numbered.

    She sounds really desperate to make a good showing before the elections – that is a sign of real problems to come.
