You posted this to make us laugh. Or maybe the Germans, the smartest life forms in the galaxy (honest, they said so themselves), know the rest of the world is so dense that we will pony up money to cover for their stupidity.

They’re certainly expecting the current leadership of the USA (the usurpers) to buy into this.
