Germans do seem to be exceptionally prone to buyers remorse in their decisions about leaders. No more so than us. I couldn't find anyone who would admit to voting for Nixon after his fall. This was in Orange County, CA and included people who formerly bragged about voting for him.

"In the past 80 years, Germans have felt the betrayal of neighbors who informed for the Gestapo..." I guess this author never heard of STASI.

Germans Loved Obama. Now We Dont Trust Him. Germans have a history of falling hard for guys who put on big rallies, shout and stomp their feet, have party emblems, and make big promises, but they have also learned that those kind of things don't always work out well.

Excuse me if I don’t place a lot of stock in what those people say. Seems their record of identifying people who side with the devil is spotty at best. Or maybe they CAN spot evil! They are 2 for 2 with Hitler and Obama.
And I am half German by ancestry but 100% American by birth. No hyphens for me! I leave that to the lessor-americans.

To the headline: they do?They love him. I have friends there who think he's the bees knees. There was no talking them out of it, closed minds and the lib msm is all they want to know. I haven't spoken to them since.
