    BERLIN (Sputnik) - The survey, conducted at the request of Germany's dpa news agency, showed that 41 percent of German nationals consider Trump to be the most dangerous among the leaders of the United States, Russia, North Korea, China and Iran.

    German citizens believe US President Donald Trump poses a greater threat to the world than North Korean leader Kim Jong Un or Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a fresh poll by the YouGov public opinion research centre revealed.

    Only 17 percent of respondents picked Kim as the most dangerous leader, while 8 percent chose Iran's supreme leader.

    Another 8 percent said that Russian President Vladimir Putin was the most dangerous world leader and 7 percent chose Chinese President Xi Jinping.

    The poll was conducted from 16 to 18 December among 2,024 German citizens. Compared with the results of a similar survey conducted in 2018, the distribution of votes remained roughly unchanged.

    I'm sure there are a few independents and republicans who have refused to drink the Kool-Aid.

    There are, but remember the OP is just in his USA bashing persona for the time being. Maybe the Christman spirit hasn't touched him yet. :)

    Why should i celebrate a middle eastern zombie?

    That said its just an indication that this 70 years alliance comes to an end. Thats a neutral thing. Things change. Alliances change. I hope it goes smoothly.

    We see trump as deluded and demented goon. He doesnt appear very bright. Infact, he appears like an absolute moron.

    I dont know. Germany is the 2nd most powerful country in the western world after USA. If your 2nd strongest ally breaks away, it says alot about your global stance.

    Many Europeans were saying similar things about President Reagan but he turned out just fine.

    2nd strongest who couldn’t fend off Russia if they tried. How strong are they really?

    And if they want to break ties over 1 president who hasn’t done anything bad that actually effects them at all, then they truly aren’t intelligent at all. Maybe they should let in a few million ME Muslims to diversify and become “better”;)

    Do you think Germany can hold their own against Russia if Putin decides to make Germany Russia's province?

    Of course they can. Because we all know that if the Russians tried the Germans would be screaming to rest of NATO, especially the U.S. for assistance. But they would also be begging NATO allies that Sobo detests like the Poles and Greeks for help as well.

    As I have said, I see Germany and Russia working very closely together in about ten years (after you get rid of the idiot-liberals, the "Gutmenschen", and "Die Linke"). The new alliances and cooperative efforts will be good for the EU and Russia! 8)

    But, be very careful about Muslims, Sobo! Remember, if you Germans don't all convert to Islam, then YOU are their "infidel" enemies, just like we Americans are....

    In Europe, you are seeing the arrival of the Chinese "Belt-and-Road" economic ventures, and some of those will be very beneficial for Germany and for the entire EU. But, again, be very careful. The Chinese are, shall we say, "acquistive" (erwerbstätig... habgierig), and they will steal 'intellectual property' from German companies just like they do from American companies....

    BMW has a bigger economy than Russia. Who else are you afraud off? Tuvalu? The american psychosis with Russia is amusing.

    That said, your goon president just tries to sanction a german energy project to force us to buy american LNG which is 30% more expensive. Not that we buckle to that and would do that, but its seen as hostile act.

    As for middle easterners, better them than what floods into your country down from the south. Add the fact they the middle easterners also go throug mexico into USA now, after we locked down borders in 2016 and its crazy to see what you allow to happen at your southern border.

    Would be an interesting province. A province that has a magnitudes greater economy and the technological and scientific leadership. So you assume the Kremlin will move to Berlin, since it would be the economical and political hub of this new "Reich". Putin already speaks fluent German. I guess he would do fine.

    You obviously have no clue how politics and power dynamics work. But its ok.

    Let me explain with astro physics.

    Russia is a giant star. Large in its surface but very little desity.

    Germany is like a neutron star, smaller in size but with extreme economic power and influence as well as human population density. In the neutron star example it has a gargantuan gravitational pole.

    So what happenes when a Neutron Star gets close to a giant star? The much bigger, but low density star gets stretched out. Matter flows towards the Neutron star. Investments and people would be pulled towards Germany in extreme numbers, people earn nothing in Russia. They would want work and invest in Germany. So over a pretty short time...Russia would collapse

    @Dayton3 is a teacher and totally against what i stand for, but even he would tell you im right with that.

    True. maybe if we were as racist and nationalistic as you guys are, we’d still have a mostly white country too:). You all are working very hard to erase that image but Demographics are Demographics. Hard call on who’s worse ME Muslims or Latin Americans. While Hispanics have their brutal gangs, Muslims have their Islamic terrorists and incompatible religious views ... it’s quite the conundrum.

    Trump tries to sanction german energy projects. That shows he sees allies as tributary vasalls. Lets say we would buckle, stop Nordstream II and buy LNG. It would open the door for any further repressive action the trump regime would start against us. In the end could mean we are put in labor camps to work as slave workers for USA.

    Its plain and simple the thought of the Nordstream II sanctions thought further.

    The difference is, in eastern Germany are no muslim. In Germany the muslims are concentrated in certain areas. And we have less muslims tha we once had jews. :)

    Add the fact that migration into Germany was virtually blocked starting from 2016 with massive border protection ect...and you still have unchecked mass migration. I worry about your future.

    He poses the same imaginary threat Leftists screamed about in 2015. Would start WWIII. Put blacks back in chains. Take away women’s rights. Destroy the economy. ONLY help rich people. It’s amazing how all their predictions were wrong. Seems Germans eat up their fake news as well.

    Probably best to stock up and hunker down, or, start paying your "fair share" of NATO defense expenditures.
    Life will go on.
