Really? What are you basing that on? If you personally know any Germans.... what do they like about her....



I based that on a number of conversation I’ve had with Germans, two are Campfire members living in Germany. They both PMed me after I’ve criticized her here. I hope they will join this conversation.

Face it, they kept her as Chancellor for almost 16 years. That’s longer than Conrad Adenauer, and longer even than that Austrian guy😉.

Obviously , she has been popular. They tell me they think she is well educated, very intelligent, and fair. Their words more or less.
They all take exception to my criticisms of her handling the Muslims, the pipeline and NATO participation. But acknowledge that those are difficult situations for them that cannot be resolved without controversy one way or anther.

So let’s offer the question to our German members.


Do you know these "Germans" that contacted you in PM?


Tell you what, why don’t you PM member Ready here. I PM’d him and asked if he’d join the conversation. Maybe you’ll get more satisfaction directly.


I don't get too involved in PMs. If he wants to talk on the forum, he'll talk in the forum.
