SakashiroHowever, if you compare Trump to Hitler, or some member of the opposition party, you walk away scot-free.
The one flaw with this argument: Gauland defended anti-semitic rhetoric inside his very own party, Trump made racists comments over and over again during his term in office (especially against Mexicans and Muslims). These gave the press (and would give an ordinary citizen) here in Germany enough basis to create a satirical portrayal of both without having to fear being charged and/or convicted of §86a as contemporary events back you up as the comparison may be extreme but not without comprehesive evidence.
