And aside from that wouldn't happen anyway. Anyone who lives in Germany still
remembers how the country looked in 1945, and would rather die than let
something like that happen again.

If the term "scenario" means "Germans start talking like Mr. Trump", I agree.

But if you mean that the rest of Europe would calmly stand by if Germany were
to become as aggressive as it was before WWI and spout out childish threats
like Mr. Trump does, I would have serious doubts.
