My Take - Well, there some things that stand out to me. 

 

First - It's good she's realized we don't need her, and we're not going to subsidize her insane policies.  When the EU collapses there will be no Bretton Woods to save Europe.

 

Second - She's now forced to embrace France which is not going to help her or the EU at all as France is doomed economically, culturally and socially. 

 

Third - The people of Germany are a smart hard working people who've suffered terribly from Merkle's immigration policy.  A policy that will eventually destroy Germany economically and culturally and they're still going to vote for her. 

 

What's wrong with you Germany?
