JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: WHEN BULLIES SPEAK: VERY UNWELCOME WORDS, INTERFERING IN GERMANY’S INTERNAL AFFAIRS, BY AMERICA’S NEW AMBASSADOR THERE, RICHARD GRENELL, ARE FOLLOWED BY TOTAL IGNORANCE FROM STATE DEPARTMENT SPOKESPERSON HEATHER NAUERT

COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA TODAY

 

“Seeking to soothe feathers ruffled by comments from the US ambassador to Berlin, State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert only made it worse by citing the Allied landings in Normandy as an example of US ties with Germany.

“The bumbling answer came after a barrage of questions were asked about statements made by Richard Grenell, the recently-appointed US ambassador to Germany.”

 

Simply unbelievable what we’ve seen over recent years as the quality of spokespersons and diplomats from the world’s most powerful country.

I think the most telling truth in all this is that there is almost no shame or embarrassment left in Washington. Bullies simply don’t feel those things.
