Importing antisemites as a way of making amends for the horrors of Nazism will leave native Germans scratching their heads.

Post WWII Germany has had several Trump-like figures already:

Dr. Konrad Adenauer, Dr. Ludwig Erhard, Dr. Helmut Schmidt, Helmut Kohl, and Willy Brandt all were leading Germany from its dark past toward a better more optimistic future.

It is the Ost-Kommunist Stasi bitch Merkel who is now dragging the Vaterland into a globalist Islamic abyss.

The genetic will to fight was purged from the German male population in WWI ad WWII.

Yesterday we visited the Spandau Citadel. I went up Julius Tower (this is the opposite view of the prior picture). My daughter went up halfway but wanted to go back down. I told her she did the hard part, a narrow spiral stairway in the center that was somewhat difficult even for me. Told her the rest of the way up is a larger stair against the wall. But she looked up and saw the very last part was a narrow bridge going across and didn't want up there. I told her we will return in a few years with gear like ropes, pullies, spikes, those sorts of things, Sherpa, and took her back down, then went back up myself. pic 1, pic 2

Close-up Julius Tower. (not from ground level but up on the wall). Julius Tower is considered the oldest building in Berlin. (my wife told me)

There was a lot of average people doing cos play. Like this person who walked up from behind my daughter while I was going to take a picture.

My daughter had good fun shooting targets (pic 1, pic 2) and posing with a skull. Heavy Russian WW2 artillery.

The German Media is of course talking about ‘unease’ among the leftist younger generation — who they assume represent the entire population of Germans below the age of (say) 35. Of course this isn’t so, hence the apprehension.

A soccer play quit the national team. Big deal! We’ve got a slice of the NFL who refuses to stand for the anthem each week. If they would quit, I know I’d be happier.

Haven’t watched NFL since this started.
Conservatives with money should start a competing football league.
I hope those take a knee bastards get a boot on the butt from the public and they all wind up as Uber Drivers.

The qualifications to be an uber driver are too high for these knuckleheads to meet.
