Germany PM just said trump was right, germany can't defend itself or it's alies and should, how does it feel to be winning pedes?

And ukraine is holding out quite well, with the jewish clown arming his populace in a red dawn scenario.
Makes me think we should elect more "clowns" and less "experts".

Here's zelensky playing horny napoleon, I understand zero vodka (it's not in ukranian, or russian, it's in vodka), but it's funny as heck!I pray he may not become a martyr. Scared as fuck of that possibility.

No Trump wasn´t wrong and everybody in Germany is pretty aware of that. The difference is the standing the military in society, while in the US the military is highly admired, in Germany in many parts of the country and especially the younger generation wished the military to be obselete at best.
Germany has a currently slightly left dominated society, here the military expanses were reduced after the end of the Cold War.
Until about 2014 the expanses of the military got reduced year after year resulting in jokes being made that the female minister of defence at that time had more children than the military working helicopters.
There were jokes in programs of even well-known stand-up comedians about the current status of military that would have been likely unthinkable in other countries.
Since the annexion of the Crimean that changed and since than the military expanses are rising again.
But still that wouldn´t have changed without the Russian attack on the Ukraine because the military in Germany is unpopular. There isn´t even a selective service in Germany anymore because that has been put down in 2011. Since then you can apply for the military for longterm shifts but it´s not that guys have to do a year of military apprenticeship anymore.
I for example never had a weapon in my hands and I wouldn´t know how to use either.
But what´s the point of your question, because Trump was also no expert in politics he wasn´t a comedian but some TV guy.

[anylolone]

Well, our pall zelinsky wasn't an expert either, but a comedian. He's doing pretty fine. And yeah, I get it, the military feels like a waste. Specially to a bunch of people who just deleted half of the jews in Europe.

[Lionman95]

Yeah pretty much, that´s why Germany took so long to decide to also help the Ukraine in military aspects because our troops are heavily under funded and before the actual invasion of Russia selling weapons to any country was something deeply unpopular.

[anylolone]

Well, what matters is, you guys finally decided to stop relying on the US to be the world police. Which actually makes everything more reliable. Now it's just turning those nuclear power plants back on and move away from russian oil.

[genericname85]

of course germany can't win shit. germany hasn't been allowed to have a propper army since second world war xD

just look at germanies current ministry of defense. i wish i was joking. but our army has been lead by far left pacifists for decades. they are more concerned that there's not enough women employed in the forces than with having a proper defense.

You have to keep in mind, when WW2 ended, the allies wanted to assure that Germany and Japan had their balls cut off, so they would never be a threat to world peace. This is what the world now has.

This Ukraine thing will probably fizzle out if Joe Biden can get Putin to the negotiating tables.

[anylolone]

lol! Doesn't matter how much money biden owes putin, Ukraine isn't his to surrender, zelensky made that very clear. It will eventually fizzle out, though, as even without the sanctions, the red dawn scenario will drain russia enough putin's keys of power to reign him in a bit. Already an oil baron got epsteined.

[Dargil]

True in the USA as well.

WTF are you babbling about? Do you have a brain injury?
