Bernd Riegert, DW: Brace yourselves, NATO — Donald Trump is coming

Donald Trump is bringing his show to Europe. And it is bound to make headlines. On Wednesday, the US president will be in Brussels for the NATO summit, where he will likely continue to ruffle feathers. Two days later, the president will meet Queen Elizabeth in England.

Riegert says: "on July 16, Trump will travel to Finland to meet his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, which could mark the beginning of a new, deep bond between the presidents."
These European writers are beyond belief. "a new, deep bond between the presidents"....such suggestive imagery!
I suggest no one should believe a word that comes from the mouths of these European journalists. We have already learned this lesson about American "journalists"....
Same mindset. Different country.
