Weimar leader Angela Merkel is doubling down on zher growing role as the public leader of the International Pantsuit Party's establishment¹ while campaigning for re-election as chancellor of the Weimar Republic, by suggesting Europe can no longer depend on America… And by America zhe means Britain… And Poland… And Hungary… And much of the French Population… And any other Europeans who are insufficiently Weimar to be European.

Zher comments on the future of Weimar trailed NATO and G7 meetings where United States President Donald Trump embarrassed the Weimar Europeans for balking on their NATO dues and trying to push for stricter "environmental" rules² while the de facto German state owned firm Volkswagen faked exhaust emissions with lying software  initially sold as engineering "innovation". The Krauts go to the polls this September.
