When he went to visit Europe and gave his famous tirade, it was very telling he didn't meet with the German chancellor but met with the leader of AfD, you know, the guys with well proven neo nazi and fascist links. He's not interested in being a gentleman, we're playing a different kind of game now - game where they believe winner takes everything and goals justify the means.

JD is a big fan of Curtis Yarvin who popularized the idea that democracy must be overcome and be replaced by some kind of oligarchy.

This is what the global alt-right movement, which the AfD is a part of, wants.

They see democracy as a weak system and want to replace it by a kind of neo-feudalism.

It’s clear that Ukraine, that fights against the Russian version of that system, must be made to be an example than democracy can not win.

He did meet with the german chancellor, days prior to the meeting with Merz and not in Munich but in Paris.
