Ivo are you aware that link to the article in Dutch by Noordermeer in Het Financiele Dagblad does not work, unless you subscribe to it. I don’t want to get a subscription as I have enough to read and do as it is, but would have loved to read it( in Dutch)!
Friedman says, "The Times Foreign Affairs columnist argues that Putin has Trump’s number, but only Putin seems to know it."
That's right! Putin, the super savvy strategist who thought he could take Ukraine in three days, but is now bogged down in an endless war of attrition which poses an existential threat to his regime, has TOTALLY DUPED the childlike moron Trump, who has single handedly caused Germany to massively rearm, which has been Putin's secret plan all along.
We need to take the super savvy Putin seriously when he says his desire is to bring back the glory days of the Soviet Union, when vast hordes of Nazi troops invaded Russia on a 2,000 mile long front, resulting the utter destruction of western Russia, and the deaths of 20 million Russians.
Yes, the glory days! The triumphant music, the waving of the Russian flag, the secret desperate romances in the trenches, the rape of Berlin, THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR!!!!!
But how to get the pacifist Germans to invade again???? Hmm....
Not to worry, because Putin has a secret plan which is only now becoming clear. Putin sends his boy toy Trump in to Europe to insult everybody, make everyone really mad, and get Germany to massively rearm! Yes, it's working!!! Putin's clever scheme is working, and his manipulation of the moron Trump is complete.
Putin wins! Germany is massively rearming!!! And little boy Trump, having single handedly gotten Germany to massively rearm, is none the wiser.
Thomas Friedman, another great imaginary expert on the Internutz, has totally nailed this one!!!!
