In reply to the discussion: ****BREAKING**** German intelligence declines US help in safeguarding upcoming election [View all]Proud Liberal Dem
(24,401 posts)6. I'd say
that we need to figure out how to safeguard our own elections first. What's worst is that any "help" that the US gives Germany may well be compromised. I would not be surprised if that's another reason why Germany has declined our "assistance". I feel ashamed to be an American right now and it makes me feel sad about how far we have fallen in terms of world opinion and how fast. I'm sure that we all remember how Republicans blamed (falsely) Obama for diminishing our country in the eyes of the world, right? Trump has now made that falsehood a glaring reality.
