What do you mean? The German press has always been both Anti-Trump and Anti-Putin. Even way before 2022

Largely they have been pretending that Trump is in any way sane and not totally unhinged.

The problem of him very obviously being a Russian Asset has also been downplayed a lot.

They and the Heritage Foundation find him to be a useful idiot.

Which means that he fulfills their goals and whatever benefits Russia is a coincidence.

I guess same with Putin – he was painted a pragmatic villain and not a senile man with nukes that he is.
