Trump as right....Merkel's invitation to illegal intruders/ economic migrants and real refugees to trample the borders of countries from Turkey to Germany , to violate their sovereignities to reach Germany ....where on arrival,  their  cultural differences and unwillingness to accept the cultural values of the host nation created such instability that Europe might be changed in a negative manner for ever....was a massive blunder.

The rise of populist regimes in the West can be attributed to Merkel's act of compassion.
