Video and tweets at link. When our lovely daughter was a child my parents gave her a music box thay plays Eidelweiss they bought while visiting Austria on a European vacation. Who knew it was a nazi anthem? What would we be without Maggie Haberman's wise insights?

So, “The Man In The High Castle” needs to change it’s theme song now?

It's sad to find out that Christopher Plummer was actually a Nazi in The Sound Of Music...

[Zathras]

The Sound of Music was a Pro-Nazi film?
These propaganda nuts are loosing their minds.

re: “Who knew it was a nazi anthem?”

Apparently, every member of the American MSM/’press’. It’s like it was a “dog whistle”, SOMETHING only they could hear, or perceive, or something.

This, itself, is VERY disturbing ...

Mags Haberman:

"Was it over when the Nazis bombed Pearl Harbor?!!?!"

[wrcase]

Yeah, but Kurt Waldheim was from Austria, so that makes Julie Andrews a Nazi or something.

[Textide]

Trump and his family were escaping the modern day Nazis. It was entirely appropriate to play considering the role the press played during the Mueller investigation.

[Vermont Lt]

Not to put too fine a point on it, the song was written for the 1959 Stage production of Sound of Music, pre-dating the movie by a few years.

The funniest thing about this is the thought that Trump gives input into the Muzak played in the White House.

I pray to God my President has more important things to do with his time—and if he doesn’t, he should be on the golf course.

Outside of being ignorant of the original context of the song, they are also ignorant of the fact that Rodgers and Hammerstein were Jews.

[Leaning Right]

ANY song that Trump would play would have a sinister meaning to the Left. And if Trump played no song at all? Well, that would have a sinister meaning too.

[yarddog]

Well there was a German U-Boat known as “The Edelweiss Boat”. It had a flower painted on the conning tower. Those crafty Germans knew it would be in the movie.

[KarlInOhio]

Operation Edelweiss was the German attack on the Caucasus Mountains, so therefore Nazi and Russians. < /braindead liberal mode>

[left that other site]

Anyone who has seen “The Sound of Music” knows that this song was an anthem IN DEFIANCE of the nazis.

[windsorknot]

Does...anyone at that White House understand the significance of that song?

Apparently Maggie doesn’t.

[PrairieLady2]

The Lindsay and Crouse script provides the metaphor of the simple edelweiss wildflower as a symbol of the Austria that Captain von Trapp, Maria, and their children knew would live on, in their hearts, (wikipedia)

Habermen is a dumbass.

[lexington minuteman 1775]

Hey Maggie the song was written by Rogers and Hammerstein who were Jewish for the play “Sound of Music” the flower is the national flower of Austria but the song was written by the two songsters long after world war two. As usual you are LIBERAL STUPID which seems to be a common thread!

These people see evil everywhere. Maybe they’re projecting.

It’s because she can’t speak Austrian.
