President Trump's nominee to become the US ambassador to Germany has a history of making xenophobic and racist comments about immigrants and refugees in both Germany and the US

Retired Army Col. Douglas Macgregor, a decorated combat veteran, author and frequent guest on Fox News, claimed that Muslim migrants were coming to Europe"with the goal of eventually turning Europe into an Islamic state." He criticized Germany for giving"millions of unwanted Muslim invaders" welfare benefits rather than providing more funding for its armed services.

I know many, many men who were in those armed forces in Germany, and that's a function of this extremely bizarre government that seems more concerned about providing free services to millions of unwanted Muslim invaders, to be blunt, than it does about its own armed forces in the defense of its country," said Macgregor in 2018.

slpng_giants Of course.

Just another one for Biden to sack

CNN fake news

'He criticized 🇩🇪 for giving ... welfare benefits...' The truth is: Germany grants to persons who apply for international protection or who are entitled to international protection, only the 'welfare benefits' to which they are entitled under EU law. Macgregor ambassador

And one of Alzheimer Joe’s insider campaign managers was caught make sexist and misogynistic remarks!

What is wrong with xenophobia? Have you looked at crime stats?

Who would have guessed in 1945 that we beat the Nazis so that someday in the distant future we could send our own white supremacist as ambassador to Germany

Just another Trump racist! Biden will be very busy in January getting rid of ALL of Trump’s incompetent puppets.

Do you like any Republican alive? My friend wants to know.

Speaking of racist comments, did CNN ever report this?

Yawn.

OF COURSE!!!!!!! Does this surprise you? It's been Trump's MO for almost four years. Kick from the bottom of the barrel and create the largest swamp in American history

Xenophobic or the truth?

Only the best people...

Another win for the best people on trumps team, to bad Hitler himself wasn't available

Sounds like just the kind of diplomat Trump would appoint. He is a perfect example of what Trump’s America is becoming.

tRUMP: “He’s a nice man. I know him very well. He’s a good person. He’ll do very well.”

Any of you in the comments have examples of his xenophobic and racist remarks?

Cuomo. We are all mystified. And embrassed. And scared that it will get worse before it improves.
