Thank you. I didn't think it made any sense, but I appreciate you confirming the fact.

Absolutelly no agreement. Not anything what you and "protectionist" said had to do with facts. By the way: The current ambassador of the USA in Germany is more than only unqualified for this function.

The Nazis would call me a Jew and you call me a Nazi. So what do you think is for me the difference between an European Nazi and an US-American racist?
What about to close the concentration camp Guantanamo and to follow the opinion of senator McCain in context with torture? Trumpists - people who try to force everyone to follow their "triumpf of will" (or "the will of Trump") - and don't like to understand anything what's real - are for sure not people, who impress me. I believe in god and not in any will of any human being or any stupid impertinence.
If you like to know something about this time of history then ask me. I'm able to read all documents in this context in the original language. I don't need an US-American who explains to me what this is what you call "Holocaust", Jews call "Shoa" and Nazis called "Endlösung". You need me to explain this to you - if you would really like to know anything about this very real part of history, which you like to misuse for your own ... uglyness.

There is a crime already on the books that covers a situation where an American colludes with a foreign country; i.e. an American enemy, to subvert American interests for self-serving reasons.
That crime is called Treason!!
I was wrong on the above, we can't get him for treason but we can get him on this---
The Emoluments Clause Could Be a Tipping Point in Trump’s Downfall

The obstruction of justice documented in Mueller’s report has gotten more attention, but Trump’s profiting from his office is an open-and-shut impeachment count.
On April 30, a federal district judge rejected Trump’s motion to throw out the lawsuit filed by approximately 201 members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives alleging that Trump has flagrantly violated the Foreign Emoluments Clause. The case was largely overlooked as national attention has focused on Trump’s obstruction of justice and his efforts to block further congressional scrutiny of his abuses of power.
U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan, in a comprehensive 48-page opinion, ruled that the narrow definition of “emoluments” advanced by Trump’s lawyers “disregards the ordinary meaning of the term as set forth in the vast majority of Founding-era dictionaries; is inconsistent with the text, structure, historical interpretation, adoption, and purpose of the Clause; and is contrary to Executive Branch practice over the course of many years.”

I never read anything what this man wrote. I read now this (translated into German)
„Vergebens, daß der stolze und gefühllose Grundherr seinen Blick über seine ausgedehnten Felder schweifen läßt und ohne einen Gedanken an die Bedürfnisse seiner Brüder in seiner Phantasie die ganze Ernte, die auf diesen Feldern wächst, selbst verzehrt. Das ungezierte und vulgäre Sprichwort, daß das Auge mehr fasse als der Bauch 2), hat sich nie vollständiger bewahrheitet als in bezug auf ihn. Das Fassungsvermögen seines Magens steht in keinem Verhältnis zu der maßlosen Größe seiner Begierden, ja, sein Magen wird nicht mehr aufnehmen können als der des geringsten Bauern. Den Rest muß er unter diejenigen verteilen, die auf das sorgsamste das Wenige zubereiten, das er braucht, unter diejenigen, die den Palast einrichten und instandhalten, in welchem dieses Wenige verzehrt werden soll, unter diejenigen, die all den verschiedenen Kram und Tand besorgen und in Ordnung halten, der in der Haushaltung der Vornehmen gebraucht wird; sie alle beziehen so von seinem Luxus und seiner Launenhaftigkeit ihren Teil an lebensnotwendigen Gütern, den sie sonst vergebens von seiner Menschlichkeit oder von seiner Gerechtigkeit erwartet hätten. Der Ertrag des Bodens erhält zu allen Zeiten ungefähr jene Anzahl von Bewohnern, die er zu erhalten fähig ist. Nur daß die Reichen aus dem ganzen Haufen dasjenige auswählen, was das Kostbarste und ihnen Angenehmste ist. Sie verzehren wenig mehr als die Armen; trotz ihrer natürlichen Selbstsucht und Raubgier und obwohl sie nur ihre eigene Bequemlichkeit im Auge haben, obwohl der einzige Zweck, welchen sie durch die Arbeit all der Tausende, die sie beschäftigen, erreichen wollen, die Befriedigung ihrer eigenen eitlen und unersättlichen Begierden ist, trotzdem teilen sie doch mit den Armen den Ertrag aller Verbesserungen, die sie in ihrer Landwirtschaft einführen. Von einer unsichtbaren Hand werden sie dahin geführt, beinahe die gleiche Verteilung der zum Leben notwendigen Güter zu verwirklichen, die zustandegekommen wäre, wenn die Erde zu gleichen Teilen unter alle ihre Bewohner verteilt worden wäre; und so fördern sie, ohne es zu beabsichtigen, ja ohne es zu wissen, das Interesse der Gesellschaft und gewähren die Mittel zur Vermehrung der Gattung. Als die Vorsehung die Erde unter eine geringe Zahl von Herren und Besitzern verteilte, da hat sie diejenigen, die sie scheinbar bei ihrer Teilung übergangen hat, doch nicht vergessen und nicht ganz verlassen.“
– Adam Smith: Theorie der ethischen Gefühle, S. 316
This sentence is for sure wrong:
"Von einer unsichtbaren Hand werden sie dahin geführt, beinahe die gleiche Verteilung der zum Leben notwendigen Güter zu verwirklichen, die zustandegekommen wäre, wenn die Erde zu gleichen Teilen unter alle ihre Bewohner verteilt worden wäre; und so fördern sie, ohne es zu beabsichtigen, ja ohne es zu wissen, das Interesse der Gesellschaft und gewähren die Mittel zur Vermehrung der Gattung."
The original English text is:
The rich...are led by an invisible hand to make nearly the same distribution of the necessaries of life, which would have been made, had the earth been divided into equal portions among all its inhabitants, and thus without intending it, without knowing it, advance the interest of the society, and afford means to the multiplication of the species.
I don't have any idea how someone is able to believe in such a stupid nonsense.

Trump has committed “treason”
Definition: In Article III, Section 3 of the United States Constitution, treason is specifically limited to levying war against the US, or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. Conviction requires two witnesses or a confession in open court.[2]
Penalty: U.S. Code Title 18: Death,[8] or not less than 5 years' imprisonment and not more than life imprisonment without the possibility of parole (minimum fine of $10,000, if not sentenced to death). Any person convicted of treason against the United States will permanently lose the right to ever hold or run for public office anywhere in any capacity within the United States.[9][10]
Constitutionally, citizens of the United States owe allegiance to at least two sovereigns. One is the United States, and the other is their state. They can therefore potentially commit treason against either, or against both.[4] At least fourteen people have been charged with treason against various states; at least six were convicted, five of whom were executed. Only one person has ever been executed for treason against the federal government: William Bruce Mumford, who was convicted of treason and hanged in 1862 for tearing down a United States flag during the American Civil War.[5]
