14. 0:37that I've experienced on this planet.

17. 0:45Whoever thought that a maniac like this
18. 0:47would be president of the United States
19. 0:49and dismantle Wait, wait, no, no.
20. 0:52And I don't want to plot. I want This is
21. 0:53something for us to really communicate.
22. 0:55Dismantle all the good things.

25. 1:02moving towards, and always has, and it's
26. 1:04been self-corrective.

28. 1:10everything that was good
29. 1:12about the US government and the and the
30. 1:14US people.

32. 1:17went to sleep.
33. 1:21We went to sleep. Wait, wait.
34. 1:23We went to sleep.
35. 1:26We didn't care.
36. 1:28We didn't vote.
37. 1:30We didn't really listen.
38. 1:32You know, of course I didn't vote for
39. 1:34this guy, but I didn't do enough work to
40. 1:37skillfully convince people around me,
41. 1:40close to me, not close to me,
42. 1:43that this was insane to elect this
43. 1:46person as president of the United

46. 1:50for this. But how quickly This was in
47. 1:53weeks. He had dismantled
48. 1:57America.

58. 2:20it the the exhibition aspect of Dachau,
59. 2:23the concentration camp had changed. It
60. 2:25wasn't about piles of shoes
61. 2:28and eyeglasses and teeth
62. 2:31and hats
63. 2:34of all the millions of people who had
64. 2:37been murdered.
65. 2:38It
66. 2:39it what it struck me now is they they
67. 2:41had
68. 2:42they showed the the process since the
69. 2:441930s.
70. 2:46The transformation of German society and
71. 2:49German government.
