HWL referred to Marco Rubio's statement that people had laughed at and mocked Donald Trump before his warning became reality. HWL wrote that Trump had warned Germany in 2018 that the country's energy policy towards Russia posed a security risk, but German leaders had openly laughed at him and the media followed suit. According to HWL, the subsequent energy crisis showed that Trump had been right on every point. HWL criticized what they described as silence from journalists who had previously mocked Trump and praised German politicians. They wrote that they did not show self-examination or ask critical questions afterward. HWL asked whether European politicians thought it had been worth ruining the entire continent's industry to avoid giving Trump right for five minutes. https://t.co/zFMmRhVfgh #politik #Trump #Tyskland (translated)
