A German newspaper published an explicit world headline after Donald Trump emerged as the winner of the 2024 presidential election.
Die Zeit, which is the country’s biggest weekly newspaper, posted a reaction piece this morning with the headline: ‘F***’.
The piece describes the factors that can lead to a scenario for his political opponents, and was written by Nele Pollatschek for the outlet, which has been published in the city of Hamburg since it was founded in 1946.
In the article, seen by The Latin Times, he wrote: ‘Finally, Trump’s advisers stopped him from doing nonsense.
‘Unless they change him for that reason. That’s why this time he has been very explicitly surrounded by people who have the core competence of loyalty.’

The outlet reported that Pollatschek also felt anxiety when he saw the election results live.
He wrote: ‘Half past five is also the perfect time to feel helpless, self-pitying, panicked and terrified.
‘ Curious in the morning. The problem, of course, is that the Donald Trump story has been tired since 2016.’
Automakers in European countries including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Volkswagen saw their share prices fall after Trump won the election.
The decline comes amid concerns that they will impose steep tariffs on the industry. They have imposed higher tariffs on foreign vehicles to protect US jobs.
Congratulating Trump on his victory, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said: ‘For decades, Germany and the United States have worked together to promote prosperity and freedom on both sides of the Atlantic.
‘Together with you, I want to continue this successful work for the benefit of our citizens.’
Trump is the first president in more than 130 years, and only the second in history, to win two non-consecutive terms.

The race initially appeared neck-and-neck as Americans headed to the polls Tuesday after months of build-up.
Democrats have considered holding a trio of states – Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania – to give Harris the White House. Biden won in 2020.

But Trump won, but gave 292 electoral votes to Harris’ 224. It takes 270 to win the presidency.
Harris is now on track to do worse than Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election.
He may be on pace for the Democrats’ worst Electoral College result since the 1988 race.
Exit polls showed his victory after he gained ground with almost all the voting blocs he lost in the 2020 election and consolidated a coalition of multi-ethnic working-class voters.
And Harris did worse Tuesday than Biden in the 2020 contest among key voting groups including women, the working class and Latinos.
Addressing a crowd of tearful supporters who had gathered at his alma mater Howard University in Washington DC, he said ‘this is not what we wanted’.
He vowed to help with a peaceful transfer of power even as he said he would continue fighting after Trump’s dominant victory.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the former president has swept five of the seven swing states and is on the verge of 300 Electoral College votes.
“While I recognize this election, I do not recognize the war that led to this campaign,” he said.
His voice shook as he addressed the crowd of supporters at his alma mater.
Harris thanked President Joe Biden, his family, staff and supporters. He also expressed pride in his campaign.
Before the speech, Harris called Trump to congratulate him and call for a peaceful transfer of power and support him as president for all Americans.
President Joe Biden then called Trump and invited him to the White House in what he called Michigan – the fifth swing state to vote for Republicans.
