        And Chancellor Merkel was E German. She was born in Hamburg but moved with her parents to E Germany as an infant. She’s a brilliant woman (maybe why 45 was so threatened by her), has her doctorate in quantum chemistry.

        I remember that night. I was 19z It felt wonderful and progressive. Not once that night it any time after did I worry we'd return to days of the cold war with Russia. dYet, here we are. Moreover, and even scarier, is the role reversal as we, America, may be the new Russia.
