She cant even form a government in Germany how can she ever lead the world....she will never come close to a good let alone a great leader of Germany 

Which is why Macron is trying to lead Europe.  He has his own domestic political issues however.  I kinda like Macron, but he is like a toy poodle who thinks he is a Saint Bernard.

Idk about Macron. I wouldn't trust any European leaders out there today. Too much BS. I'll be very happy if we can completely break away from them say good luck and never help them again in anyway

I like that Macron is challenging Merkel’s control over European affairs.  Nothing will disintegrate European unity faster than a good old-fashioned Franco-German brawl.  And I have long thought that European unity should not be a US policy goal.

The USA needs to leave the world and worry about itself. Stop aiding countries stop spending money in other places. If the USA can get back to an isolationist way it would be for the best. You can keep allies as long as they understand our wealth and resources are staying here. Now if one of our allies are attacked at that point well decide how to help.

You cannot lead the world without a credible military.  Or maybe her plan is to lead the world by telling Trump where to send US troops.

Merkel wants Europe

Europe has a credible military...if that makes you a world leader. SMH

World Leader is just "a couple of words" anyways. Means nothing these days.

But, please > carry on.

His remark about a possible G6 was funny - like they could ever really ignore the US.  Allies sometimes have very sharp disagreements and you can only suppress them so long.  The day of reckoning has arrived.  And our relationship will be better for having addressed the issues.

No they don’t - the German military is nearly nonfunctional.  And they have no will to use it - even if it was.

The USA will be fine without them.....now them without the US that's a different story. Considering we spend billions for these other countries I say pull all the money out take the AF out of rammstein Germany which is our largest AF base take the military out of Korea Vietnam etc etc and we can put said money towards the deficit. And well see what countries crumble first

An interesting take for a continent in the midst of committing societal and cultural suicide.

This.  As you say, I fail to see how they expect to “lead” or convince anyone to follow their lead when they themselves have no guiding principles.  They don’t believe in Christianity, and don’t even believe in the basic tenets of western democracy any more.  It’s all been supplanted by a weak multiculturalism that can’t even protect it’s own citizens.  

And when push comes to shove as Bormio pointed out how will they enforce their world order?  

The Eastern European countries like Poland have the belief of their convictions, but aren’t powerful enough to project them.

People will follow Communist China before they follow Western European fecklessness.  To quote a great philosopher, “say what you will about he tenets of National Socialism, at least it’s an ethos.”

The US shouldn't trust any country that floods its own people with migrants. France, Germany, England, Belgium and Sweden are unlivable war zones. Commonly referred to as "no go zones"

I thank God every day Trump is President and has enough common sense to know immigration destroys countries. The EU should just cancel itself. Europe is a laughing stock. They are destroying theirselves and Trump is smart to stay away

What, pray tell, will you then do with all our unemployed military? Not trying to bash your idea, just trying to get you to think about the implications of what you propose. For for better or worse, we, the USA, structured the post WW2 world order which essentially made us soldier to the world, at least the so called "free world."

And what do you tell our multinational corporations domiciled here, regarding our decision to exit the world when they make a significant amount of their sales and profits, sometimes more than half, internationally? It's not as easy as you suggest. 

Finally, and I am just joshing you here, don't you have a new job? What are you doing up so late?

She's a nut job. By 2020, 20M Muslims will call Germany home. And look at her country now..

This is what liberals want for America and that's why they are so dangerous. 

Liberals want mass immigration, repeal the 2nd amendment and shut down free speech. They want the world to hate America and disrespect it by being hostile towards our law enforcement and disrespecting  the flag and anthem. 

They want free healthcare and education knowing that only tax paying hard-working Americans will have to foot the bill for people who refuse to work. 

 The only thing we should be funding is one way tickets to Venezuela and the Middle East for these people
