What???

From Phillipp-Anders Rau Instagram


Trump has so many weird friends:

As Donald Trump gathered his supporters, family and friends at Mar-a-Lago on US election day last month to wait for the results to trickle in, a small group of far-right Germans went largely unnoticed.

Among them was the purported semi-professional, one-time porn actor, self-confessed former cocaine user, convicted thief and hard-right candidate for the German parliament Phillipp-Anders Rau. Together with a compact delegation of young political activists and influencers, Rau posed for the cameras with the American president-elect at his invitation, chanting “Fight! Fight! Fight!” in English and German.

Members of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party had already been making inroads with the Trump camp for several months before the US vote, as Europe’s populist anti-migration forces attempt to harness Maga’s momentum before Germany’s general election in February.

He's already said when a reporter asks him how he could be friends with so and so who has done so many bad things, he'll say that so and so likes him and hasn't done anything bad to him.

Or he'll also do the " I've no reason to believe he's done such and such , in fact he's told me he didn't do any of those bad things. And I have no reason not to believe him.
