   Der Spiegel beats the #BrokenTimes and #BrokenPost with its appropriate news judgment. I don't think this needs translation.

     @jeffjarvis Well, German media in my experience is overly focused on US politics enabling local German corruption+extremism swept under the rug

     Since 2014, before Trump, Neo-nazis have gained footing in EU politics like most EU extremist, then grabbed power in national politics:

     77 / 736 seats held neo-nazis in German parliament

     Oh, sorry, they prefer AfD

     This lack of local reporting on this is why police get away with abusing immigrants, and neo-nazis infiltrating police w/o global outrage

     @zeri @jeffjarvis Yeah, I can't believe we elected George Bush Jr. twice too!

     After he started a torture program, illegally invaded a country unrelated to 9/11, passe the patriot act and created the global surveillance network, and expanded the powers of presidency later abused by the next sociopaths to do even more damage

     @jeffjarvis helplessly lifting our middle fingers is about the sum of what we can do about the Americans electing a convict crazy person, the same crazy person, again.

     @Wildheart_Baby @zeri @jeffjarvis Yeah, its hard to really convey how truly fucked that situation was

     Not only is the supreme court not supposed to arbitrarily choose a president, but to do so before the votes were done counting is even more absurd

     @ekis @zeri @jeffjarvis I mean, the first time, he wasn't so much elected as was installed. When the supreme court said, stop counting votes.
