German media focused intensely on the US presidential election between Trump and Harris. Early reports highlighted Trump's controversial statements about cage fights with migrants. As voting began, concerns about election security and potential unrest surfaced, with bomb threats in Georgia blamed on Russia. Trump cast his vote and hinted at his response to a potential Harris victory. Domestically, tensions within the Ampel coalition persisted, with SPD's Mützenich criticizing Lindner's "childish" behavior. Reports of Schaeffler's job cuts reflected ongoing economic challenges. By evening, attention shifted to technical issues in swing states and Trump's claims of potential voter fraud in Pennsylvania. Throughout the day, German commentators analyzed potential outcomes and their implications for European security and trans-Atlantic relations.
