We are about to see a Fourth Reich. It won't be any more like the Third Reich than the Third was like the First or Second, but Germany is the only big dog left, and like pop tarts with Beyoncé, all the rest of the Euro countries will have to bow down.
Funny story, back in the 50’s, a German-American guy I knew used to say he wished to begin a secret army he would call the fifth Reich. I said to him, what about the Fourth one. He said you are foolish if you believe there is not one already. He pointed to Volkswagen Beatles, which he hated. He called them the secret weapon of the fourth Reich sent here to maim US Citizens! He warned to never underestimate the diabolical German mind. Too bad he passed away long ago because I know he would have a lot to say about this today.
