Paradoxically Germany has one of the fastest-growing Jewish communities in the world. Should Donald Trump give them a nasty scare, then the kids of many American Jews will start learning German for reasons other than getting to read Schiller and Goethe in the original.
Think of what Germany would have to offer American Jews:
1. excellent educational system, including low-cost education through graduate school.
2. similarity of German and Jewish-American culture.
3. invisibility.
4. well-working private sector... good climate for business.
5. rigid ban on neo-Nazi activities and symbolism.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
