  • Trump thrashes European leaders in wide-ranging interview: ‘I think they’re weak’

    From politico.com

    President Donald Trump denounced Europe as a “decaying” group of nations led by “weak” people in an interview with POLITICO, belittling the traditional U.S. allies for failing to control migration and end the Russia-Ukraine war, and signaling that he would endorse European political candidates aligned with his own vision for the continent. The broadside attack against European political leadership represents the president’s most virulent denunciation to date of these Western democracies, threatening a decisive rupture with countries like France and Germany that already have deeply strained relations with ...

“ allies for failing to control migration “

He’s right on that one !

Uncontrolled immigration has been the scourge of Europe for the last two decades . We ( Europe) are now paying the price economically and politically.

Most decent people are level headed about migrants and the circumstances of their arrival , however open borders and uncontrolled numbers are weighing heavily on most European countries. Balanced numbers are what’s required , not open borders .

It’s the number one issue Europe has to face and get a grip on , otherwise you’ll see the rise of parties that actually tackle the issue .

It’s that simple.

EU is a clownshow. Looking forward for the day to move to Dubai and tell the EU to get lost.

Hate Trump all you want but some of his points are true and obviously very negative for the EU. The world isn’t what it used to be. The EU keeps assuming they can do the same thing every year and somehow it will just workout. It will not. The EU does not have the military are economic might to stand up by themselves for themselves. Without the US, Russia, China, or India as a true partner and ally, the EU faces a downward spiral.

Germany has to keep immigration flowing to make up for its aging workforce. That said, perhaps they could try to attract people instead of taking whoever wants to come in....
Exactly. Many countries actually need migration. But there is a difference of letting people in who can find a job, obey the law, and contribute to society versus letting in people who will just have to live off government subsidies.
