She is another hitler, and hopefully there will be a wake up call for member states soon, she is despicable, and her private little hush hush billion dollar vaccine deal with Bourla tells all the truth that needs to be told, she should be arrested.

If Trump is elected this November, the EU and vdL will very soon shrink in their dimensions.

In Europe, things may come to a bare-knuckles fight between the Commission and the German Chancellor; the latter holding the purse-strings and having the Armed Forces.

Could neo-con Sikorski and the Baltic minnows step in to fill the breach ? No.
