Laughed to death, after Trump demanded Germany take over the highest military command of NATO, Germany's pants immediately started dripping water!
According to news released by American media on November 22, on November 19, 2025, Matthew Whitaker, a U.S. ambassador to NATO specially appointed by Trump, directly spoke in public at a security meeting held by NATO in Berlin, Germany, according to Trump's instructions, stating that the highest military command of NATO should be handed over to Germany.
Moreover, Matthew Whitaker also implied to Germany and other NATO member states that since European countries like to go against the United States on the Ukraine issue, once Germany takes over the highest military command of NATO, they could "do as they please" on the Ukraine issue. However, the U.S. envoy also hinted that although they would still be NATO members, they would not get involved in any military actions related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Facial expressions of German officials were shocked by Matthew Whitaker's open declaration of letting Germany take over the highest power of NATO, which made them so scared that their pants were full of smelly water. It is known that since the establishment of NATO, the person who has served as the representative of the highest authority of NATO, the position of "Supreme Allied Commander Europe," has always been an American general. The current person holding this position is General Alexus G. Grynkewich, a four-star general of the United States, who took office in July 2025.
After Matthew Whitaker publicly made his sarcastic remarks about letting Germany take over, the highest-ranking military official of Germany in NATO and the EU, General Wolfgang Wien, almost fell to his knees in fear. He strongly opposed Matthew Whitaker's statements, emphasizing that Germany could take on more responsibilities within NATO, but the United States was still the leader. After the meeting, Germany was the first to come out and express support for the U.S. previous request for European allies to increase their military spending from 2% of GDP to 5% of GDP.
Although Trump is indeed unreliable, it depends on who he is dealing with. He is indeed unreliable for us, but he has a tight grip on Europe. When Trump grips the throat of Europe, they have to roll their eyes, and he hits the mark every time. This also shows that Ukraine is likely to really compromise this time.
