Heavily invested in the US economy and created millions of American jobs. German companies are the 3rd largest foreign employer in the U.S. and the 2nd largest in the manufacturing sector. Let's not forget they are buying American products and giving you access to many of their products. Germany were also the 3rd largest contributor of troops to coalition operations in Afghanistan. So when the US called for Article 5, Germany answered.
A lot, actually. If you want to argue for the U.S. pulling back from Europe, at least base your argument on something other than a lack of knowledge on the subject.
Do you think that money somehow ends up in the wallets of average Americans? I wouldn't hold your breath for a check when he, "ends the war in 24 hrs".
As a dual German/American citizen, it’s very fair for Trump to tell other nations to meet a 2% defense. A country partnership is a 50/50 contribution not the US doing 80/20 as it has been for too long.
That's what the U.S. wanted for decades. The U.S. have vetoed multiple EU attempts on creating a EU army, through NATO European military has also gotten depended on the U.S. thanks to the fact that the the US have always had the spot as high command. When it comes to military production the US have also pressured EU countries to buy from them instead of producing more at home, just a few days ago Washington showed it's concern about Europe wanting to produce and buy their own weapons in Europe. So again, easy to blame Europe, but the reality is that the U.S. also have parts of the blame. The problem is that Europe have listened, but it seems to change now.
This Indian too doesn't care what Germans or Europeans think of Trump!! He is a breath of fresh air after the insane & greedy globalists led by UN-democrats have brought the world to a potential nuclear war!!

Germany and all of Europes free ride is over. Trump is for the American people. We are tired of giving all our tax dollars to countries that mean nothing to use. 😂😂😂😂😂😂Trump is a legend. America is blessed to have Trump as president. Every country on earth could only dream of having a Trump as President. Trump should be a forever President to the entire world 💯💯💯💯
We made the civil industry and the us did military. It was a Profit machinery for the us Military complex as Military is more valuable and gives hard power.
Why is it considered radical to be concerned about your own country? Trump worked for world peace so we all could relax and work more concerning issues
Germany has had a free ride on security for years, and we're helped getting the east back, France although trys to make out it's pro European has always put French interests first this will be a real test
All these analysts and no one seem to understand what Americans think about them. Trump is representing ordinary American thinking. All NATO countries did not fund their army and dependent on US protection, meanwhile they spent on their infra and industries. So US tax payers subsidized European defense. Apart from France, every European army was ill prepared. I think UK and German army even admitted that they do not have weapon kit for even war simulation training. Regarding Tariff, Europe has tariff on American product, while they had unrestricted access to US markets. What Trump is saying that the generosity is over and everything will be transactional. Germany will suffer the most amongst major countries as their business had benefitted immensely. France will be more or less be on the same path as they had diversified their markets and are not dependent on US like other European countries. UK will also suffer economically.
To Our friends in Europe. Barack Obama 8 years Clinton 8 years Biden 4 that's 20 years Democrats in The White House in 30 years!! Americans we here don't have long love for politicians we change them often. In 4; years all this circus will be forgotten and maybe another Democrat will be in the white house back in 4 years Trump will be older ( 84) maybe dead ( I don't wish his death I just look his age) for The moment you need to do as Japan did . Just play him ( they invented a Sumo championship with the trump name in it the trophy they knew his ego they just play him his ego
Reading this I wonder, why would we want to manage this nonsense? All Europe needed in terms of military defense was to actually do the spending that in order to manage Trump we had to do anyway (well a bit more than that). But if we do, would we really need the USA? The USA needs bases in Europe for their logistics. We could rent them out instead of providing them for free. The USA is not going to protect Europe from Russian nukes, but Russia has no reason to nuke Europe. People overestimate NATO. It won't go away soon, but I hope it will be recognized for what it is, US infrastructure. In terms of economy, the EU has the same size as the US. All it needs is to restructure it so as to not depend on the USA so heavily. Then economic cooperation would be a two way road instead of a stranglehold. Without gluing to the USA, Europe would be free to deal in transactions, taking the best deals no matter who the partner is. Just like the USA does. You call us friends but the USA is not our friend. Why should we be yours? Let's be friendly competitors where friendly is being used the American way. Sadly, Europe is not unified and most European governments will stick to the USA like flies to [..]. But Trump might move the needle. Last time he changed the way the EU talked. Maybe now there is some action. Hope dies last.
True! Make the American consumer pay more for their products and force Europe to produce more at home. Then the EU should pull out the 3.46 trillion U.S. dollars invested in US companies, that millions of American workers are depended on for their paycheck and invest it in EU instead. Sounds like a genius plan, would hit record inflation in no time.
As usual, the citizens of the world can expect and will almost always receive a reliable and broadly based perspective about German, European 🇪🇺, North American and worldwide current affairs from DW! 👏 🏆 👏 I appreciated the host's skills and intellect, as well as the range of viewpoints expressed by her three guest commentators! 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 🇩🇪 🇪🇺 🇩🇪 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦
For eight decades all US presidents have seen this considerable different. The world's problems have been the problems of the USA. And it did bode the US extremely well. They are by far the world's richest country. That their overly meritocratic ideology does prevent them from sharing the wealth fairly among their citizens, is of their own making however.
That really isn't saying much considering all the efforts made to smear his name. Still majority of Americans voted for him. Has nothing to do with Trumps showmanship but more of a reflection of people's frustration to their current government
I think dw should interview experts from business. Trump is running America like a corporation. He will raise cost like tariff, but a business leader will do relevant projects at other parts of the company to cop with the change. He will recruit Musk to work on govt efficiency potentially save billions. When his budget is up, we can see how he gonna to balance it. Just like how we work our annual budget proposal. This is his 2nd term.
"Maybe one day they (the AfD) will really have a charismatic leader and we're really in trouble," I just love this comment. And just maybe this leader happened to be an Austrian.
All you don't understood that with tariffs the Americans are inclined to buy Americans products, that it could be less expensive! Obviously this will not good for Europe! Europe has to react strongly, you put tariffs to us and we put tariffs to you but not only 10% but 50 % jn way that also the European will be inclined to buy the Europe products and we are much more in population that Americans! Is time for Europe to stop to be subservient to the Americans!
As if we in USA had the capability to manufacture everything. Buy a part for a car and check the country of origin. Check were most of amazon’s goods are made. USA? Ha.
Oh no. America is going to look after Americans. Jokes aside america should look after its friends as well. But Trump looks at how friendly these nations actually are. People in Germany may not realize that we have gutted our manufacturing in the USA. We want it back now. Trump understands this.
Well, America is going to look after its rich Americans... Also lowering the taxes will only put America in more debt... As the Republicans usually do (check the statistics...)
Uncertainty in some things good, Trump brought in former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo at one of his last rallies. So not so scary after all.

And to top it off, trumps going to take USA out NATO, that means we’re on our own☹️
On tariff. Trump seems to packaging up tariff as a chip on the negotiation table to his allies. Just like xi imprisoning jimmy lai a negotoation chip. Germany should look for affordable alternatives valuable to the US to deal for the tariff.
I've been voting Democrat since 1976. I still hold on to some of the Democratic center-left icons: woman's choice, helping the poor at home and abroad, et al. However, I did vote for Trump this time around.
IF democrats actually helped the poor at home, USA's child mortality rates won't be crashing through the roofs and the world would NOT have mass poverty!!
When AfD was called “Trump without the charisma, if they ever got charisma, we’d be in trouble.” Isn’t that what happened 100 years ago.

Sorry Germany, no more free US tax payer money for your defense.
German is a US colony.
Think how well the U.S.A. would be doing if we spent all of the war money at home
they wouldn't spend it at home, we would just be less in debt.
Think how well ruSSia would be if it does not spent money for the wars.
Do you think that money somehow ends up in the wallets of average Americans? I wouldn't hold your breath for a check when he, "ends the war in 24 hrs".
Much of the savings will turn into yet bigger tax breaks for the wealthy. Why is Elon sucking up to a type like Trump?
Last term he raised the debt ceiling 3X in 4 years & added 8 trillion to the debt. Didn't build the wall, didn't eliminate the debt.
