ALL WARS end, but how they end determines the shape of the peace that follows—and whether it will last. Now, as America has taken the initiative on ending Russia’s war against Ukraine, European leaders must choose between showing strength as the process unfolds and facing the perils of relinquishing responsibility for their own security.
In other words, she is calling on Europe to get serious about protecting itself and its neighbors and stop insisting the US foot the bill. What a concept.
Love her. LOVE her. https://t.co/2I3nMT45lY

She also has the coveted Jarvis endorsement.
Seeing a lot of US is “abandoning Europe” and don’t understand that sentiment. NATO allies have been living in a fantasy world since Putins 2007 speech in Munich, US has to push back on this at some point and Ukraine means so much more to countries like Germany than the US. https://t.co/uGWmHQravw pic.twitter.com/KA8inMZ6F7

All she wanted to do is party a little bit. She shouldn’t have to fight for that right. https://t.co/f97Z9RNQMZ

If only they would have left her alone to go to the disco and party.

That is the reason the tabloids hounded her mercilessly. She was too normal and rational.
At least one leader gets it. Probably why she’s a “former” BTW, only Finland and Great Britain fully repaid their WW2 debt to the USA. https://t.co/ybVHzfGag5

Honestly, it’s probably more like 99%.
Europeans like to brag about their free healthcare or only working 3 days a week with 8 months paid vacation.
Well, let’s see how that goes when you’re paying 5% GDP on defense.

Correct! Much like a parent pays the bills of the adult children so they can party and vacation, the United States has been footing the bill for all these other countries to live very frivolously.
So Trump is correct
