Trump says European leaders are ‘weak’ in extraordinary attack on US allies

[Arvaos ⚚]

The US president told POLITICO in a wide-ranging interview that “decaying” European countries had failed to control migration.

He launched into a new tirade against Sadiq Khan, calling the Mayor of London a “disaster” who “gets elected because so many people have come in”.

Trump also hit out at Paris during a rant on migration to Europe, and derided Sweden as a “pretty unsafe country”.

Trump is right, the UK, France and Germany currently suffer tremendously from weak leadership.

He's not wrong but he is a hypocrite.

He *is* wrong. Khans a good guy which is why we voted for him.

perfect? nope, but far better than Boris was.

But European leaders are weak. When they stop being weak, then we'll stop calling them that. Until then, what good is such weakness as allies?

Who is 'we'? You're nobody and nobody in the government reads your posts even though you think they do.

1. A welfare state combined with open borders is a recipe for disaster, Europe.
2. It's possible to import your required majority in a democracy, London.
3. Welcome to multiculturalism, Sweden.

Also lack of religion is weakning the people to influences of poor ideas. Global trade spreading foriegn ideas if we had closed borders no trade outside local within borders. we would be stronger not relying on others via trade if you cant lift the weight alone you must learn to grow stronger so you can lift it no one will help you and that is for your own good. A society is only as strong as its weakest member

Weak yes, but it might not be a bad thing, they can avoid accountability that way. Bureaucrats are the ones that rule most European counties, the same can be said for most governments, but they that it to the next level.

Unfettered global trade has also sent the good paying jobs overseas, leaving behind an increase need for that welfare state. Not to mention the higher taxes that come with funding that welfare state as the amount of people on it grows exponentially with the importation of poverty. It's a race to the bottom in Europe.
