he will win this game. unfortunately he is smarter than all of them together and he will eat trump for breakfast.
WRONG - she never changed her mind but she is smart enough to understand at what point she have to give up.
just look at this bavarian solo effort. seehofer has "pushed through" something against merkel for which there is no basis at all and which cannot be implemented at all.
merkel wanted nothing else - but in a european solution.
seehofer has now succeeded in sending asylum applicants who are already registered in another country back there. and the right-wing community is cheering.
now after his "victory" he has to realize that the other EU countries do not take them back because there is no EU regulation for it. and now? WHO was right in the end?
slowly this nonsensical plan of seehofer becomes clear to everyone who has not understood it before. and even in his own party they call for his resignation.
why does it have to come to this?
why does one first have to implement something that cannot be implemented so that even the last idiot can see how stupid the idea was?
merkel made only ONE big mistake in this whole situation. she believed that all countries keep their promises and signed contracts.
You can interpret that as a weakness - I call it "standing by your given word".

I rather spent less than 2%. But like i said, the Dutch army is in terrible condition. OR they invest more, OR they must stop some tasks. But it looks they only take more tasks. Now Trump put pressure on it. Holland won't invest more immedeatly. But you can be sure that when the dutch politicians talk about the army, they will spent more. Now they Always used money from the army to fill other holes.
Rutte said already years ago we must help te refugees in their surrounding countries and filter the economic 'refugees' out. - The Racist ;) But Holland is small, the EU didn't want to listen. Just like the national party's in Holland. And now look, as last hope/option it is now being tried out. Cause everybody knew for years that countries didn't want the "pharmacists from Aleppo". They call them Pharmacists cause the government in Holland was Always saying the Syrian where all high classed workers, pharmacistst and dentist that we realy needed... hahaha.. So Merkel divided the countries and the countries knew the would lose elections if thet followed the EU stance on immigration. But she did anyway. Right wing parties came up very fast recent years. Even a point in the Brexit... So Merkel screwed up big time.
I hate to say it, but for the EU Rutte would be the best president. He Always denied that he wanted. Keeping up his show that he wasn't in favour of the EU (while everybody knows he is a europhile). Even Wilders en Baudet said everytime that Rutte was only preparing to become the next EU president.
And now Merkel wants more spending on military because of Crimea. But she don't mind, she pays that out of her left pocket while the Russian pipeline money fills her right pocket.
I predict that Merkel will stop, Rutte will be president of the EU, Trump will stay in power and become more friendly with Russia. That might be one of the win-win cases. And Putin facilitated it.
And i am in favor of leaving the refugees in Germany. Many countries where building walls and saying they didn't want them. Tried to force them, but they didn't listen and countries like Italy choose to vote for a party that didn't support that deal. She should have said 'wir schaffen das' and make pictures with refugees like an invetation to a bgig party.
Like you said, Russian might want to crack EU and Nato. The EU has a big part in that. The EU critics pointed it out many times; don't try to let Turkey join EU, don't let Ukrain join EU, stop letting all those poor former Russian states in the EU, slow it down. Didn't listen. And now we have this stand off and a Brexit. I saw it coming. And if the politics keep forcing more EU, there will be more to come. Read a German foreign Minister wants more EU cause we can't trust Trump he said... Well, the people in the EU doesn't trust the EU politicians, so better step on the brakes.
