Good Christ. Trump seemed to think the chancellor of Germany considered the end of WWII a sad day somehow. Merz had to explain, no, America liberated us from the Nazis, dipshit. That was a good thing, you absolute fucking moron. I paraphrase only slightly.

As an elected officials with residents in that facility, Mayor Ras Baraka should never have been treated as a criminal and Members of Congress should never have been treated roughly. If they would treat elected leaders this way, how do you think they would treat regular folks?
