#1 Lots of German girls like black GIs. White German guys don't like that. So we'll see.

#5 Poland's President Andrzej Duda during an Oval Office meeting: "Germany is not living up to what they're supposed to be doing with respect to NATO, and Poland is."

So, let Poland annex Germany (they already took Silesia). Then our troops will be in Poland, not Germany. No relocation costs. (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)

#9 ^You think generals backstabbing Trump because they're unhappy with his NATO moves?

#10 Many generals have gotten used to the idea of funding and prestige without the achievement of anything resembling victory.

When cost/benefit analyses raise questions about how much they should be getting, it starts to get...upsetting.

Also, this is the Clinton/Bush/Obama cohort of perfumed princes, so there's that factor as well.

#11 Germans want us out. So we're going. Fuck 'em.

Germany doesn't see any threat from Russia. Otherwise they wouldn't have completed Nordstream 2.

The European idea is to neuter Russia by economic engagement. If they're not worried, why are we?

Bring the troops home. Close the bases. USA out of NATO.
