 to all my American friends. I am highly disappointed, shocked, sad, and I don't know how this election might affect my annual US trips. In Germany, November 9th is called a fateful day. It is also a remembrance day. 1918, November Revolution. 1923, Hitler's first violent attempt to become president. 1938, night of the broken glass where thousands of Jews were killed, deported, and the housing and businesses were destroyed. 1989, fall of the Berlin Wall. Well, and now, now November 9th marks for the world the realization that Donald Trump is president. And I really hope that this does not make history in a bad way.
