The response to Donald Trump’s policy initiatives, the fate of Ukraine, and the issue of massive investment and record debt are on German voters’ minds two weeks after the federal election.

The US no longer sees the US as a trustworthy partner.
Black, Asian, and Native Americans:
“First time?”
Ummmm … it’s happened before … and the last time the Germans looked bad
What do you mean?
It’s probably a reference to the genocide the Germans carried out in Africa, 40 years before the holocaust.
These articles are so redundant… As an American I don’t see America as trustworthy. I see specific states and cities as trustworthy to a degree, but that’s it.
This is true and wont change when Trumps gone either to be honest. The right wing of the US is closer to Russia’s right wing than any european party and also far divorced from the rest of Americas wants. So long as Fox news keeps pushing them toward fascism they’ll vote for the next fascist weather its Trump or not. Dealing with the US right now is like a Jeckle and Hyde situation where each personality lasts for two to four years at a time. Too unreliable for anything productive.
The big issue for me is that it’s like dealing with a completely different country every four or eight years. How can you enter into an agreement with the US and rely on it sill being in place in 5 years?
The next fascist they elect will be worse, assuming they even have elections. Why wold anyone trust a country that rips up trade deals and tosses human rights every four years?
Bold of you to presume that there will ever be another USA presidential election again…
My interests as a US citizen align with Germany’s. My government has been overtaken by traitor swine.
I’d hope so…
Ignoring the obvious isn’t helping anything, other countries pretending trump was normal last time is a large reason why he even ran again this time, let alone won.
Pretty sure the American people being some combination of undereducated, lead poisoned, religious, and just plain greedy, is what did it.
Too late now, but if every US child had been required to visit a death camp and take a semester of WWII history (actual version, not some Texas-schoolbook division approved, neutered/revisionist one) maybe we wouldn’t be here today.
Honestly, America just seems in a death spiral across so many different factors, and the only solution to basically any of them is having faith in government, but the government has repeatedly failed them so many times that people don’t.
Like lack of fixing lead and pollution problems creates dumber people, less able to hold their government to account.
Lack of strong public education makes people think that governments can’t run schools, so they pull their kids and money into private schools which makes public schools worse. It also makes people dumber and less able to hold their government to account.
Lack of public healthcare means that people don’t understand that the government can really effectively and efficiently run a utility that helps them at the lowest points of their lives.
Like, American GDP per capita, is ~$90,000, Canada’s is roughly ~$55,000. We should not be able to provide comparable government services, and yet every time I went down to the states I’d notice notably worse infrastructure, on top of all the services and safety nets that I knew they weren’t getting.
If I were to place a date for when USA started it’s downward slope I’d say around the end of the 90s. Thereafter the turningpoints were 9/11, covid 19, and finaly 2025.
Yeah it is other countries fault, lol.
This country has been taken over by the worst people. They are Nazis. You would be a fool to trust them.
This is an absolutely sane and correct response.
