As Donald Trump gathered his supporters, family and friends at Mar-a-Lago on US election day last month to wait for the results to trickle in, a small group of far-right Germans went largely unnoticed.
Among them was the purported semi-professional, one-time porn actor, self-confessed former cocaine user, convicted thief and hard-right candidate for the German parliament Phillipp-Anders Rau. Together with a compact delegation of young political activists and influencers, Rau posed for the cameras with the American president-elect at his invitation, chanting “Fight! Fight! Fight!” in English and German.

It doesn't matter.
Surely Club 401K around the world hasn't created an environment where such ugly parties would get any power whatsoever.
Right?
Here's hoping the Club 401K'ers keep ignoring it.

It’s what the German left does - when they’re about to lose an election, they declare the other party to be a bunch of NAZIS and ban them.

pre-emptive MAGA stance :
"just because trump spends his leisure time with actual german nazis does not mean he wants to be hitler. because hitler is dead, only hitler was hitler. plus, heil musk."

You would think this might make Trump supporters ashamed or at least a bit uncomfortable...but the reality is, I think many Trumpers are hoping that our democratic republic becomes more authoritarian. I hope they don't get their wish.

The MAGA right is seriously allergic to facts.
