WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report (https://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report))—German Chancellor Angela Merkel demanded that Donald Trump issue a “complete and sincere apology” to the German people, after Trump claimed incorrectly, on Tuesday, that his father was born in Germany.

“Of the many insulting things that Donald Trump could say to the German people, alleging that his father was born here is by far the most hurtful,” she said. “He must take it back at once.”

Merkel said that Germany would consider breaking off diplomatic relations with the U.S. immediately if Trump did not acknowledge “that his father was born somewhere else.”

Despite widely available evidence that Trump’s father, Fred Trump, was born in the Bronx, the White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, stuck by Trump’s story on Tuesday afternoon. “The President is proud that his father was born in a great foreign country like Germany, and not in a bad foreign country like Puerto Rico,” she said.

Which is why I have a hard time believing Sarah would say that , because she knows they are a territory. Trump might not but I'm sure she does. Besides if it gets our soldiers sent home have him tell them HE was born there! LOL

Our military spends $39BB supporting our troops in Germany, which represents roughly 0.09% of Germany's $4.1T GDP.

They'll definitely fold if we leave.
