We all thought at the start of the campaign he was a bit of a joke. But the thought of a man with zero political experience and a dubious business record being able to buy and bully his way to the current position fills me with terror.
Hillary is not a lot better, but at least she has wide political experience and is or was a lawyer. Regardless of her various offences she is quite well regarded throughout the world.
A thought went through my head the other day when I read an article telling me that deep underground in the US there are people who execute the order to fire when the president orders a nuclear attack. It was stated that these people have confidence that if the order ever came it would be a 'last resort' and they would indeed press the various buttons.
However my thinking was, if they knew the order was coming from Trump, would they? I somehow doubt they would. .

Yes, Jonjel, I am sure very few Germans felt 'the final solution' was anything more than rhetoric.

Many Germans knew what was going on, including a now departed very good friend who lived very close to the Polish border. They were just too damned fearful for their own safety to do anything or say anything.

Your very dear departed friend was very much in the minority. If you read history, you will know that German's were unaware, even the ones who were jew-haters.

I do read history, I have read history and I don't think that is correct. Many were ignorant of the facts but many were aware of what was going on and chose to stay silent.
