The second historical Presidential mandate of Donald J. Trump is a planetary geopolitical storm to which no one can remain indifferent.
And while many allies have moved to be as close as Trump as possible, there’s also a fair deal of false friends being unmasked at the moment.
Take the German Ambassador to the US, Andreas Michaelis, for example.
Multiple German media outlets are now reporting that Michaelis recently wrote and circulated a diplomatic cable warning of the ‘threats that US democracy will face’ under incoming Trump and his team.
Deutsche Welle reported:
“In the five-page cable report sent to the German Foreign Ministry and the office of Chancellor Olaf Scholz last week, Michaelis stated that a second Trump term represents serious threats to the system of democratic checks and balances outlined in the US constitution.
Michaelis voiced serious concern about the future of US democracy, writing, ‘Fundamental democratic principles, along with checks and balances, will be undermined as far as possible, the legislature, law enforcement and media robbed of their independence and misused as political arms, and big tech will gain co-governing authority’.”
The German ambassador to United States warns that Trump administration wil rob the country’s law enforcement and the media of their independance and hand big tech companies co-governing powers.

The classified cable was first circulated to news agency dpa, and now in circulation among German media outlets, such as the Bild newspaper.
Michaelis expects Trump to concentrate power in the hands of the president ‘at the expense of Congress and the states’.
“Michaelis went on to write that Trump’s policy ‘of maximum disruption, the breaking up of the established political order and bureaucratic structures as well as his plans for revenge ultimately mean a redefinition of the constitutional order’.
Michaelis, who will represent Germany at Trump’s inauguration on Monday, said he sees the incoming president as a man driven by a ‘desire for vengeance’, musing that he will ‘largely sap’ the US of its democratic principles.”
The German Foreign Ministry ‘does not comment on internal documents’, but insisted that the US is ‘one of [their] most important allies’. Yeah, right…
