Berlin: Germany called on Donald Trump to play by the rules and accept the result of the U.S. presidential election in what amounted to a rare diplomatic foray by a key Western ally.
Trump’s appeal to end the counting of ballots “doesn’t comply with the democratic culture” of the U.S., German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas told public broadcaster ARD on Thursday.
“It’s easy to be a winner, but sometimes it’s quite hard to be a loser,” he said. “It’s important that in the end the result will be accepted by everybody.”
Until now, European leaders have chosen to keep quiet on the unfolding political drama in U.S., and await a final resolution. Germany has a track record of keeping a low profile when it comes to foreign policy and avoiding controversial positions.
Germany calls it In this case, it’s taking a clear stand in trying to steer Trump to accept whatever the result is when it comes. With Democratic rival Joe Biden ahead in key states, Trump has suggested the ballot represents a “major fraud on our nation,” and threatened to take the results to the Supreme Court.
“This is first of all the Trump family and his close campaign team,” Maas said. “I can imagine that there are also a number of proud Republicans who follow with growing suspicion what is happening there.”

Rich coming from the country that lost two World Wars.
Germany doesn’t know too much about winning.
Play by the rules? What rules?
Foreign interference. Ban these morons from travel to the U.S.
And France possesses the World Cup that they covet.
Even tougher to stand up for yourself against those who hate you and would denigrate your efforts because of envy and cowardice.
And their army today would get ass-whooped by Turkey. Heck, they’d lose to France.
Exactly. THe LEFT gets to define EVERYTHING right? They get to define what is free speech, what is violence and what isn’t , what is a fair election etc.
SO VERY TIRED OF IT.
If they steal this then they’ll use their mail in schemes to keep stealing all these states . NOWAY GA went to Biden...but here we are being told thousands of ballots FOUND and all for BIDEN.
A statistic impossibilty.
This sounds like an article from the babylon bee. Brown shirts intimidate people by burning down their towns and we supposed to accept their faked election of 1936.
He’s just jealous of all the supporters Trump has.
He needs to keep his mouth shut—-old Berliner commie.
This is coming from the self-loathing feminized candyasses who call themselves the German race now. They hate Trump because he has German heritage. Time for Dresden II.
They have lots of experience being losers.
“Rich coming from the country that lost two World Wars.”
.......
Germany fought against the rest of the world.
Now it’s Trump vs. the world
I’ve been thinking a lot about Germany today actually. When I was watching Bannon War Room and suddenly it was taken down. Truly, truly chilling. Like Nazi Germany. But it wasn’t government per se, it was a private company.
I thought private companies wanted my money and clicks. I see now that they absolutely don’t.
Typical Nazis...
F Germany and they can keep their rapefugees of pieceful religion.
Germany knows it’s easy to be a whiner. They’ve been doing it since we kicked their asses twice.
