   1/ My dear American readers, I feel it is time to acquaint you with a phrase that was very popular during the Third Reich:

   "Wenn das der Führer wüsste!"

   You see, whenever Nazis at any level of the German government did something shitty, a lot of Germans who followed them refused to believe that high Nazi leadership was in any way responsible, and insisted that if Adolf Hitler himself knew of this, he would immediately put a stop to it - up to and including the deportation of the Jews. Hence their exclamation:

   "If only the Führer knew about this!"

   And in the years to come, I believe you will hear a similar phrase from many of those who voted for Trump whenever the Trump government does something shitty:

   "If only Trump knew about this!"
