Nor is Germany's payment into NATO, when the heck are they going to pay their bills? They like to shoot their mouth off, but they can't seem to open their wallets, they aren't exactly poor either. Maybe since they are only paying half the bill, the US should also pay half their own bill from NATO, then we can keep this up until NATO is actually completely obsolete.
You forgot only a little bit:
Germany doesn't want to be world's policeman nr. 1
Leaving NATO, no problem. NATO ---> very useful for the weapon lobby and industry. Please tell me one positive NATO action !

Meryl Streep is the greatest actress nowadays, Trump is the best political showman.
Every day he shows us examples of his extrem sordid character.
Do you think he will ever be able to have a serious discussion, the only way to learn and know something what is new for him? He opens his mouth already before his limited brain can work.

Not with Donald Trump. Standing in front of 10 US flags, with his daughter Ivanka to one side of the stage, he was itching to talk about the story - almost moreso than the jouros. He was loving it, if you sent this guy to Pamplona for the bull run he would quite possibly run towards the bull. And the beast might as well, in such circumstances, do a quick U turn and gallop to safety. You American's really are lucky to be rid of Hussein and get a real man.
When I say this conference in full length, Trump standing in front of (so many) US-flags I had the impression this egomaniac was farting against the flags symbolizing a lot of US values.

Germany has had a (Nazi) despot, nowadays Russia has one, Turkey has one, Zimbabwe has one.
And the USA are going to have one, who thinks the government is the same as his private business.
He isn't fare away of the mentioned Nazis.

Like a young apprentice who knows all better than the experts

theatening US companies with punishment for overseas investments so that they already exercise kissing @rse

denying critical questions very angrily

lack of knowledge in details

lack of attaining knowledge of new objectives facts

loss of memory; forgets what he yesterday talked about
-
egomaniac

without self-control again and again, as demonstrated during this press conference
-
no interest in reading, what means no interest in learning new things
-
prefering his own interests at first, people's interests are second class
-
and the list goes on
Will he change his attitude(s) in the future? Seems impossible

Just another leftie with a pretty face. Recipe for disaster.
Wait for the time after January 20 and you will remember the outstanding qualities of your former First Lady Michelle.
After January 20, you will see a pretty label on a wine bottle, but inside only air. In contrast, before you saw a pretty label on a bottle with an excellent wine quality inside. Michelle was a diamond for her husband and the USA. And some blind righties would like to throw dirt on this gem.
BTW, the former First lady didn't have to tolerate a pussy grabber.

Congratulation to China for this bridge, finished within 3 years.
Some TV-members feel compelled to give this useful bridge/construction an adverse purpose.

What is a „nanny State“ ?
Very easy. The state treats people like a „nanny“. The legislative (parliament) is the nanny and you, me, all people of a state are the children who need some protection and regulations for possible and real conflicts. Therefore you need the law or regulations.
The regulations are based on many criterias, i.e. Social, political, religious, moral, ethnic, economical, juristic standards. … etc. To have or to win a consensus for all these standards is like talking to all people in the world in a single language which the people won't or cannot understand.
To reconcile so many different ideas, feelings, beliefs, is impossible, especially in states which are like melting pots. Between people of different nations it's still more difficult.
The gun lovers are against the weapon restrictions, the muslims shouldn't drink alcohol. The US republicans, muslim states are against abortion, the US, and European „liberals“ not. These are only a few exambles showing that there is no consensus within the same nation, continent, maybe neighbours or even friends. Because conflicts cannot and should't be resolved violently, therefore we need some or a lot of regulations which please some people and others not. But we need them.
Out of my viewpoint it's better to have more than less regulations to be protected in a legal way, at least. Law is nothing but rules based on many criterias. If you don't have rules you cannot play a game, if you don't have regulations you cannot live in peace. You need them against the bad boys ignoring normal human standarts.
For me it's a laughing stock that people refuse abortion (to save life) but are pro-gunners. Oxymoron. Hereby you recognise already how illogically people are who hate the nanny state.

trump has the "toddler" excuse for plausible deniability for anything he does. Nobody expects him to know anything about foreign policy, because he knows nothing, so this diplomatic kerfuffle can be downplayed in a way it couldn't with a regular president that isn't a narcissistic man baby.
Maybe like this ........ ?

What are you talking about?
Ref. to # 467
I translate it for you:
Do square miles decide on US election or the number of people ?
It's already a "democrazy" in the US that the majority of the voters doesn't win an election, but the so called electoral votes.

In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond)
Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.
The United States is comprised of 3, 797,000 square miles.When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
What an abstruse argument.
Are these "counties" male or female and at least 18 years old?
New rightwing law ???

Another idea.
Based on my own experience, read the instruction leaflets of your medication (if not available, google it).
i.e., I had my experience with xanacom which was prescribed for reducing the eyepressure in one eye. These eyedrops are extremly systemic. That means some ingredients of the medication go into your body with positive or mostly negative side effects. There may be side effects, but must not.
In your case, maybe one of your pills had the side effect to reduce the blood pressure. In your case a positive side effect. In my case, the awful side effects of these before mentioned eyedrops have been noticeable now, nearly 1 year after the first intake.

Oh well that means a $20m loss. Guess he won't be letting that happen again in a hurry. There were some that stood by it and said it was good for them I did hear but haven't researched it. Dead story now.
That's what Trump calculated. If the court proceedings would have been pursued the word would have seen the American Prez is a fraudster.
Make the USA great again by a fraudster? US-Reality show.

Trump would also like to change diplomatic rules. Foreign countries should respect HIS idea of choosing a foreign ambassador.
It's already proven that Trump likes the bumlickers very much.

Michelle has a 100% clean slate and if she can keep it clean, I got not one single problem with it.
I hope she creates her own identity instead of piggybacking off "Hill" and keeps her nose clean.
Intelligence doesn't matter ?

The right wing nuts are already attacking the next US president - after Hillary.
In a strong contrast to the Reps, they are not fighting against each other with ordinary arguments. Great and very civilized!

For every sh@t sport the players have to show their (new) club a document about their physical health.
Now my question:
Why is there no requirement that all candidates for the job of the mightiest man in the world, the USA president, must show a document from independent university doctors about

her/his mental health for the job, i.e. No dementia
-
her/his IQ - not below 70
-
at least a minimum of moral helth
???.
Problem solved, especially concerning Trump.
Missing all the categories mentioned above. Remember Trump's "7-11", "November 28" - election day, "Belgium = nice city", endless slurs and lies, agressiv and violating behaviour etc., etc. …. (read New York Times).

Lashing back, Donald Trump heatedly rejected the growing list of sexual assault allegations against him as "pure fiction" on Thursday, hammering his female accusers as "horrible, horrible liars" as the already-nasty presidential campaign sank further into charges of attacks on women.
A German comedian said on TV:
The US medias – especially TV stations - are so hypocritical.
When Trump uses the (TV-) forbidden words „f..k“ or „p...y“ you hear a bleep.
But when you hear Trump's lies you don't hear the same sound. If they would do the same as with his unethical words you hardly wouldn't hear Trump's voice; maybe complete silence or „bleep, bleep, bleep ..... tomorrow again.“ .

Dear Mr. President of the USA,
tell the Trump voters they should follow their darling's advice:
Go to the election on November 28

Trump's own words:
"Grab them by the p---y," Trump told Bush, explaining his not-so-subtle seduction style. "You can do anything."
“When you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump said in the recording. “You can do anything.”
I understand now why Hillary didn't shake hands with Trump at the opening of the TV-debate. She really couldn't know where his hands have been before.
I also understand now why horny Trump needed those famous TV reality shows.
Reality show is getting a new meaning … from the viewpoint of nowadays.
Trump also didn't understand that political shows are "a little bit" different form reality shows. Bashing and downgrading people as a "boss" is/was easier in his shows than seriously discussing problems when you need knowledge and some control about yourself.

If you read the topics on the web page of NATO you'll get information about some „achievements“, including Afghanistan, Iraq. It's in general advertising and self-justification.
The USA and GB have been very angry that some European countries didn't like to be „NATO“-members in the fabricated Iraq war. That means some NATO-members tried to abuse it's rules, tried to abuse them for their own interests (in Iraq for OIL !!!). Among the rules:
„NATO is a crisis management organisation that has the capacity to undertake a wide range of military operations and missions.“
Surely, Iraq war was a „crisis management“ ??? But when the NATO was urgently needed in Syria it plunged like a duck into the water.
Concerning the Gulf of Eden, you are right, NATO did the job. But, do you need the extremely expensive NATO for actions like this? We have the UN. And if Trump would change his mind about NATO, don't you think that he wouldn't try to abuse the NATO (again)? The conservative German party (CDU) wouldn't mind. Defence minister von der Leyen shows already a poodle-like behavior.
