Germans think Trump is more dangerous than Kim Jong Un and Putin

Although Washington is one of Germany's closest allies, public trust in the US has significantly eroded under President Donald Trump, a new YouGov survey showed.

Germans were asked who was more dangerous: North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un, Chinese President Xi Jinping, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Russian President Vladimir Putin or US President Donald Trump.

Some 41% of Germans said they thought Trump was the most dangerous out of the five world leaders.

In second place was Kim with 17%, followed by Putin and Khamenei with 8%. Coming in last was China's Xi with 7%.

Over 2,000 people in Germany took part in the survey, which was commissioned by news agency dpa.

A similar YouGov poll was carried out in July last year, in which 48% of Germans surveyed said Trump was more dangerous than Kim and Putin. That poll, however, did not include the leaders of Iran or China.

ME: (When asked to cite an example of why they believed Trump was dangerous, their eyes glazed over, they let out a long 'ummmmmmmmmmmm', and then admitted they couldn't think of any reason Trump was dangerous other than the media said so.)

Why? Trump ain’t bluffing, that’s why he’s more dangerous. When your sitting on a Royal Flush, it ain’t bluffing

But no where near as Adolf Hitler and the rest of the Krauts.

The resentment is due to clumsy American attempts to block the Nord2 pipeline from Russia.

It didn’t exactly endear America to the Germans.

I guess we have succeeded in breeding the warrior spirit out of the Germans...

They should have written in Merkle’s name since she imported the moslum hordes who will destroy Germany.

They said the same about Reagan in the 80s. Convinced he was going to get them all nuked. Remember that song by Nena?

That’s why German police recommend German women wear sneakers when they’re out at night - so they can run away faster from their new muslim masters. German men certainly won’t risk their lives protecting them.

Once all the Germans were warlike and mean,
But that couldn’t happen again.
We taught them a lesson in 1918
And they’ve hardly bothered us since then.

-Tom Lehrer

Isn’t President Trump of German heritage?

Sort of right, just not in the way they think.

Trump rides on top of the best outfitted and trained military in the world, so in an absolute sense, yes, he is the most dangerous.

Does he have the will to wield it in a despotic and tyranical way? No! So in terms of intent, no, not dangerous.
