Berlin is expressing doubt about the European Union’s ability to withstand the rise of nationalist parties and the pressure from the Trump administration. This unprecedented skepticism in Germany has raised fears of lasting weakening, or even the gradual marginalization, of Europe as it exists today.



You’re right. It still feels more like a betrayal though when, say, a party which runs a campaign about peace and love turns out to be a psycho bloodsucking cheerleaders for genocide (eg the Greens).
The Greens first showed their true face when they entered a coalition with the SPD to form the Schröder government. This government was responsible for not only the harshest social cutbacks in German post WW2 history, but also for participating in that stupid military adventure in Afghanistan to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
