I agree. She is inadvertently overseeing the destruction of the EU due to her policies on the currency, economic austerity and immigration. Which is great because the EU is bureaucratic bloatware, even if it's a shame to lose the good bits.
Go Angela!
Krugman also implies she is responsible for the rise of right wingers in France: "Kevin O’Rourke weighs in on the big showing of Marine Le Pen and friends in the French elections; like me, he argues that it has a lot to do with Europe’s economic failures.
Let me add, however, that it’s not just a matter of times being bad. It’s also important to realize the way in which traditional sources of authority have devalued themselves through repeated policy failure. Europe, much more than the U.S., is run by Very Serious People, who tell the public that it must accept Schengen, austerity, and regulatory harmonization (the eurosausage!), and that these are the right things to do because those who understand how the world works say so. But if things keep going badly, this authority based on the presumption of expertise erodes, and politicians who offer more visceral answers gain support."

I forgot to blame Angela for the eurosausage, which is doubtless the German sausage rather than the British or Italian ones.
