We are truly living in a nightmare. Thanks Trump voters.

the entire world was appalled when Couchfuck McGee stood up in Munich and lectured Germany on how their current crop of Nazis — the AfD — are just a bunch of misunderstood funsters who should be welcomed with open arms.

did Secretary of State Marco Rubio pull Couchfuck aside and read him the riot act? no, he did not. Liddle Marco tousled the impish rapscallion’s hair and said good boy! — and then he went on Face the Nation to pour more gasoline all over the fucking fire.

--Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Sunday defended Vice President JD Vance’s decision to meet with the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, dismissing criticism that its nationalist rhetoric echoes Nazi ideology. Vance, who spoke at the annual Munich Security Conference on Friday sparked backlash for meeting with AfD leader Alice Weidel after scolding European leaders for boycotting the party.

In an interview with CBS’ Face the Nation, Rubio dismissed comparisons between the AfD and the Nazi regime. “There was no free speech in Nazi Germany,” he said. “There was also no opposition in Nazi Germany, they were a sole and only party that governed that country. So that’s not an accurate reflection of history.”--

the shit sandwich that Marco’s trying shove into everyone’s face is the notion that these Nazis aren’t like those Nazis — but he left an important word off the end of that assumption: yet.

these Nazis aren’t like those Nazis … yet.

Germany’s leaders, as you might well imagine, are livid that two condescending American assholes are trying to tell them how to run their country.

--Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany on Saturday accused Vice President JD Vance of unacceptably interfering in his country’s imminent elections on behalf of a party that has played down the atrocities committed by the Nazis 80 years ago.

Mr. Scholz accused Mr. Vance of effectively violating a commitment to never again allow Germany to be led by fascists who could repeat the horrors of the Holocaust.

“A commitment to ‘never again’ is not reconcilable with support for the AfD,” Mr. Scholz said at the conference on Saturday morning, in an address opening the gathering’s second day.--
