Just now, from interview with German defense minister.

“I know you are trying to be diplomatic, but really, when is Germany going to start talking tough to the US? Don’t you think you need to take a stand against this?”

German defense minister demurred, further annoying the npr people.

Remember, this outrage is because the President is asking an ally to live up to the agreement and responsibility they are obliged to and take some measure to help defend themselves.

Also, npr disputed the notion that Germany is held hostage by their dependence on Russian natural gas....

“Germany gets 20% of their energy from Russian natural gas, that’s not a lot. They have a lot of windmills.”

I’m not joking. Word. For. Word. What they said.

NPR shouldn't get a dime of taxpayer money for anything other than stories about car safety or some shite they can't twist into liberal propaganda.

Say what you will about Trump but he completely understands leverage and, in this case, he has all of it and Germany has nothing.

Ask the Germans how well it worked out for them the last time they tried to get tough with us.

What’s Germany going to do to us? Send migrants here?

Germany talked tough to the USA before.

Each time they got their arse kicked.

Amazing what Trump has done to the pinkos...they are now openly begging another fricking nation to oppose their own nation. The winning never stops

I gave up on NPR the night Obama was re-elected in 2012. Completely showed their bias and incompetence.

To many, unfortunately it does.

But to me, it amuses me. Today was fun.

Screw NPR.

GEOTUS is spot on.

Germany isn’t honoring their 2% agreement and is now energy dependent on the country they have engaged in total war with twice in the last 100 years.

What is untrue about what Trump said?
