Von der Leyen is on a dropping streak.
Like so many Globalist ‘leaders’, the European Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen was in a position to get reelected, however didn’t pull out an influence challenge that ensures help for her insurance policies and initiatives.
Since then, she has been extremely ineffective – however nothing compares to her horrible month of July.
‘Time to go’: because the month began, Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán posted a meme on social media with a picture of von der Leyen stepping out of a purple body, symbolizing her ongoing political debacle.

Referring to the then-upcoming confidence vote, Orbán added: “The vote was scheduled because of the corruption scandals piling up across the President, however everyone knows that corruption is simply the tip of the iceberg. That is about competence, outcomes, and the way forward for Europe.”
We’ve got been reporting on VDL’s misadventures:
In addition to that, she additionally had a really unsuccessful journey to China, and at last was humiliated by the commerce settlement that she signed with the US, with Orbán saying that Donald J. Trump ‘ate her for breakfast’.
July is often heat month in Brussels politics, however this 12 months was nothing of the type.
Rightwing MEP from Romania, Gheorghe Piperea, drafted a movement of censure in opposition to the European Fee, secured the 72 signatures to place it to a vote.
Euronews reported:
“The movement put von der Leyen in a uncommon place of defiance. The Fee chief was pressured to handle, one after the other, the accusations that Piperea had levelled in opposition to her, rejecting all of them as ‘false claims’ and ‘sinister plots’. Socialists, liberals and greens, all of whom backed her re-election final 12 months, seized the second to air their pent-up frustration and run by way of a purchasing record of recriminations, elevating severe questions in regards to the viability of the centrist coalition.”
Whereas she survived the vote, it proved how simple it’s to file a movement of censure at any level.
Bruised from the no-confidence vote, von der Leyen turned her consideration to the funds: one other flop during which she ignored the 26 Commissioners.
“Because it occurred, the proposal was marred by inside fights over the full dimension of the funds, the restructuring of applications and the monetary allocation for every precedence.”
The EU-China summit was one other flop.
“Regardless of the pressing want for tangible change, Ursula von der Leyen left the summit with little to indicate. There was a brand new dedication to handle bottlenecks within the provide of uncommon earths and a joint assertion on local weather motion. Past that, no progress was achieved, and the details of friction had been left conspicuously unaddressed.”

And VDL ended the horrible month with a convincing defeat on the commerce negotiations with Trump.
“With the [tariff] deadline of 1 August looming ever nearer, the Fee chief flew to Scotland and met Trump in a last-ditch try and seal a deal of kinds. What emerged from these talks was an settlement to use a 15% tariff on the vast majority of EU merchandise and a 0% tariff on the vast majority of US merchandise. Moreover, the bloc made tentative pledges to spend an astonishing $750 billion on American vitality and make investments $600 billion within the American market by the top of Trump’s mandate.”
Cries of ‘capitulation’ had been heard throughout the previous continent.
The very disadvantageous deal additional tarnished von der Leyen’s status.
