"Some people suspect me to work for the Clinton campaign. I don’t, but I’d vote for her if I could (I can’t. I’m German. Pay attention.)" he said. 。

"Franklin" also defended his choice of signing the letter on behalf of the people of Germany, saying it is a "way of overdramatising to add emphasis." 。
