'Apocalypse now?' What Europe's media thought of the Trump speech

[guohua]

Excuse Me,,, But Why Do I Care What Europe Thinks Of Trump? Please explain to me the reason that I should Care That The Europeans Are Afraid of Trump, Huh,,, WHY?
I want The Muslim Countries and Russia To Be Biting Their Nails and Worried About Trump,,,,,, YES!

Donald Trump might have whipped the crowds into a frenzy with his first speech as the Republican candidate for the U.S. presidency, but Europe looked on with a mixture of criticism, fear and bemusement.

Giving his keynote speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday night, Trump attacked his rival Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton and reiterated his pledges to make America both "safe" and "great" again.

Trump's speech focused on the "threat" to the U.S. posed by terrorism, immigration and what he called "unfair" trade deals. In addition, he said that he was the only man who could challenge the elite and "fix" the country. His was a campaign for "Americanism" not "globalism," he added.

The image of Trump in front of a line of American flags at the convention dominated European newspapers' front pages on Friday with a mixture of reactions to the Republican candidate's manifesto and musings on what the world might look like if he became president of the world's most powerful nation.

Business daily Handelsblatt's headline focused on Trump's call that "we cannot be so politically correct."

Trump was no less controversial when he promised to clamp down on immigration, strengthen borders and champion hard-working Americans. "I am your voice," he said.

The convention audience cheered wildly as Trump stood in front of a row of American flags to deliver his speech. Chanting "U-S-A, U-S-A," "Lock her up" (referring to Hillary Clinton's recent use of a private email account when she was secretary of state) and "Build the wall!" – a reference to the wall that Trump has promised to build on the U.S.- Mexico border.
Trump has the ability to make even Europe's right-wing political establishment look liberal. The U.K. Independence Party's former leader Nigel Farage, also not known for political correctness, once told CNBC that Trump was "wrong" to call for a complete ban on Muslims entering the U.S.

So it was on Friday, with even Europe's conservative press critical of Trump's key messages. Germany's center-right, conservative Die Weltnewspaper noted that Trump's message was "apocalyptic" and "bleak": "The speech was populist through and through and offered no solutions," the newspaper said, adding that it lacked "elegance, humor, self-irony."

France's Les Echos, a right-leaning financial newspaper, said Trump had posed as the "savior of a country at the edge of the Apocalypse" in his "endless" speech on "endangered America."
The left-wing Le Mondenewspaper also drew attention to Trump's attempt to paint the "most distressing picture possible of the U.S." although it feared that Trump now "has just over three months to arrive at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington."

Spain's centrist El Pais newspaper said that Trump's speech, although more "orderly" than his more impromptu utterances, was full of "half-truths and manipulated data," whereas Italy's Corriere della Seraattacked Trump's "absolutely groundless accusation that illegal immigrants would destroy America's middle class."

Not every country in Europe cared about Trump's speech — Russian dailies Vedomosti, Kommersant and the English-language Moscow Times, among others, had no reports on Trump's address.

 
The Image If Trump In Front Of Our Flag Says It All! They're Afraid Of A American That'll Tell Them Where To Shove Their Ideas, Thoughts and Order's to America!
After 8 years of The Coward Obama Running Away and Not Keeping His Promises and Degrading America Every Chance He Got, To Bless them!!! Not Going To Happen Again! The Elites here and in Europe Don't Want Us or Anyone To Have A Voice!
I agree with the comment.

Brexit is the first shot across the bow of the People's movement against the new One World Globalist State. Of course, the countries in Nato that have been getting a free ride for decades need to pay their "fair share" for their OWN security and fear Trump. Of course, they want the status quo and puppets of the Socialist Elite like Benedict Arnold Hussein and H Rotten Lying Crooked Clinton. She hasn't just broken a law or two, her and her serial rapist/philandering spouse are a full fledged Crime Syndicate with their pay for play Foundation - taking money not just big Multinationals to do their bidding but from foreign Govts including many of those Sharia Govts supporting Islamic terrorism. Merkel and Clinton - the wicked witches of the West!

Most Canadian Women here in Canada (that I know anyway) are intimidated by Trump. I was surprised to find that out. They find him arrogant and pompous.

But isn't that better than a pussified present President elect or is that just me?

And people that prefer Hillary for President scare the shit out of me. They do. Hillary is obviously terrible at foreign relations and well...a Presidency has to do a LOT of foreign politics and talks, don't they? And let's not even get into the corruption of things...I don't get it. Some people are blind. Or stupid. Or a little bit of both.

Trump wants to restore order. Enough with the politically correctness. Crime and Violence. Enough with the BLM and ISIS shit.

Hillary wants to fill her wallet to the max before being introduced in the history books as becoming the first female President of the U.S of A.

What does 2 + 2 equal again?

Europe, Russia, Asia, the Middle East, they ALL freak out that Trump may become the next President as he'd stand up to them, look 'em in the eye and tell them to fuck off if needs be. Use force to show who's the boss if needs be. Enough of the two faced decisions. And THAT is something we haven't seen in decades and decades.

Is Trump an angel? Hell No he's not. But he's way better than any other Candidate that has shown up for this next Presidency. Big time.

JMO.
