  Oddly enough, this guy Wolfram Weimer a die-hard right-winger. So I was quite flabbergasted when I first read the headline, and still am doubting whether he really intends to follow through with this or rather is only floating this idea so as to introduce another bargaining chip in the trade negotiations with Trump.

    Ah u know, I think we are about to see two types of right-wingers, the we have to hold out against trump to be strong ourselves and the suck up to trump types. Both created by trump in their current form. I honestly dont rlly care who said it in this case cuz the idea being out there is gonna make some waves regardless of who started saying it.

    I would expect surface level nationalism from a right winger and Google is very much a foreign interest in Germany.
