Wow, even the right-wing party that won in Germany yesterday can't stand the Trump regime.
"... and my absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible, so that step by step, we can really achieve independence from the USA. I never thought I would have to say something like that on a TV program. But after Donald Trump's latest comments in the last week, it is clear the Americans, or at least this portion of Americans, this government, care very little about the fate of Europe."
I'm embarrassed to be an American.

I think that the US equivalent of the difference between the CDU/CSU and the AfD... very roughly... is the difference... in 015-016... between the SwampGOPs and MAGA.
I ain't MAGA. But, I'll warn that the AfD may very well win in Germany next time if the German Swamp... conservative and liberal doesn't take care.
In 024, SwampGOPs had virtually no choice but to vote for Trump. That's, very possibly, in Germany's future.
by meagain on February 24, 2025 10:08 am The equivalent of the AFD won in America and you are happy with that so what is your point?
by HatetheSwamp on February 24, 2025 10:12 am
meagain,
I HatetheSwamp. Anything that is bad for the Swamp pleases ole pb.
I voted for JD. It's the first vote I was proud of since I voted for Jimmy Carter in 76.

Even if he has to support Nazis.
by HatetheSwamp on February 24, 2025 10:37 am
Who has to support the Nazis?
by Donna on February 24, 2025 10:44 am
There are members of the AfD who are Nazis.
by Donna on February 24, 2025 10:47 am
From Der Spiegel:
"...[R]eporting and research by reporters at DER SPIEGEL has now revealed that the AfD is closer to groups of a right-wing extremist or outright neo-Nazi nature than previously known. This once again reveals how far the AfD and JA have moved into right-wing extremist territory."

Yeah, Donna. I don't trust your wokester Swampcultists' reporting about the AfD and Nazis but I imagine that there's some little bit of truth to it. And, it's why I offered the warning I stated in #1.
The AfD meets the needs of a huuuuuuuuuge portion of the German populace, a growing portion. Liberals and moderate conservatives in Germany can mock and belittle them, as po and you did MAGA back in the day... to your own peril. That's all I'm saying.
This is a trend taking over all of the West. It ain't gunna disappear.

You don't think that Germans should mock Nazis?
by HatetheSwamp on February 24, 2025 11:05 am
I don't think the remedy to the potential mainstreaming of the Nazis is to address it with mockery.
Germany tried that in the 1920s and 30s. We know how that worked out. But, if that feeds your sanctimony, there's nuthin ole pb can do about that.
by Donna on February 24, 2025 11:10 am
Are you well-read enough on German politics to proclaim that Germans are "mocking" Nazis? Can you give us an example?
by HatetheSwamp on February 24, 2025 11:17 am
No, Donna. Absolutely not. What I do know very well is that many of your ilk fall prey to the temptation to be holier-than-thou and to disrespect and take lightly the threat of groups like the Nazis.
I'm suggesting that people in Germany take the rise of AfD seriously now or the day may come when it will be too late.
by Donna on February 24, 2025 11:20 am
I don't think that the German people whose families lived through Nazi Germany need a lecture from you.
by meagain on February 24, 2025 11:38 am This is a trend taking over all of the West. It ain't gunna disappear."
And you are proud of it?
The Germans do not mock the AFD. It has been taken seriously from its infancy. It is blatantly Nazi, not just some members. It espouses all the principles and methods of Naziism.
And it is taking over gradually, just as a version has taken ove Hungary and the United States. Just as Italy now has a Fascist government: one that is light on action, though.
America sleepwalked into it. All the signs were there but, like you, half of the country only gets its news from monitoring Right Wing media.
All Trump needs now is a crisis so that he can follow Hitler's example. A Reichstag Fire that can and will be =manufactured. It may be that Musk is trying to provoke such a crisis now with his chainsaw.
Let,s hope he cuts off his own arm.

The MAGAts try to disown their MAGAt-ness even faster the the old Repubs tried to disown their wingnuttiness.
You're a MAGAt, Brown Shorts. Own it. You voted for the orange ass monkey - not Vance.
by oldedude on February 24, 2025 2:05 pm Lead- Remember for everyone else on this site, any conservative party right of the Venezuelan Socialists and the FSB ("ФСБ") is consider fascist. just sayin. Of course, they have no idea what "ФСБ" is, so there's that.

Authoritarianism isn't "left" or "right". Maduro is just as authoritarian as any right-wing authoritarian.
by Indy! on February 24, 2025 4:09 pm
Slow down, Donna - Odorous just learned the meaning of "precendent" a couple days ago.
by oldedude on February 24, 2025 4:35 pm Authoritarianism isn't "left" or "right". Maduro is just as authoritarian as any right-wing authoritarian.
Donna- I'll agree with that. Same as Castro (left), Saudi (Right) as well as Congo. Most of the Central/ South American states grew out of the "Federal States of Central America by Francisco Morazán.
There was also Bolivar, etc, but they were all leftists. Most of that is because of the harsh treatment of the peons or indigenous people.
There is one country that isn't as "authoritarian" as everyone else, and is politically center, socially right (very Catholic and actually builds it's law around that) is Panama. You won't make much money down there working, but you don't need it. Health care is cheap, as well as groceries, etc.
by oldedude on February 24, 2025 4:43 pm...and my absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible, so that step by step, we can really achieve independence from the USA.
Let's see... We've been paying MOST of NATO costs since the end of WWII. We've consistently had more military in Europe than the Europeans. AND isn't this what trumpster said he was going to do? And suddenly you're shocked😱? I don't understand that. Doesn't wrongagain keep yelping that "Europe needs to take care of Europe?"
You Can't have it both ways. Two horses, one ass. You must make a choice. Do we want them as trading partners? sure. But we don't have military in all our trading partners. Would we come if there was a war with Russia? maybe. It depends if we have entered one with China, DPRK, and Iran first.
