To be clear. I'm not implying Germany is better or worse than the US. We clearly need to clean up our room too.

    Oh I agree that we're worse.

    This political situation we're in here in Germany with our history... Noone would have believed it being possible a decade ago. Now our right-wing party AfD is placing 20% in our current political surveys (Question: if elections were next Sunday what party would you vote for?)...

    And let me make it very clear: many of those right-wing voters can't understand why Trump is so popular in the US.

    It is frightening, ridiculous and maniac at the same time.
