By the way - the German Secretary of State, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, calls Trump a "Hassprediger" (hate preacher).

It could be argued that any head of state who voiced an opinion regarding the suitability of a candidate running to be the head of state of another nation, particularly an allied nation, was trying to influence the outcome of the election. Most leaders try to avoid the appearance of doing so.

Nothing wrong with hatepreacher, except you don't ever hear it. Hatemonger is the customary idiom. Monger is an old-fashioned word meaning 'seller.'

"Monger" is defined as a person who promotes a specified activity, situation, or feeling, especially one that is undesirable or discreditable.
Sounds like a preacher to me.

hatepreacher sounds like the idioms that Faulkner would use when he would combine an adjective and a noun to make a new noun that would put a real emphasis on what feeling he was trying to convey to the reader. Google translate is channeling Light In August.
Now back to the non-intellectual Hillary hate.
Or Hillaryhate as Faulkner would have said if had written a book with Ragoo as a character.

'Donald Trump’s Lack of Respect for Science Is Alarming' Scientific American
"Scientific American is not in the business of endorsing political candidates. But we do take a stand for science—the most reliable path to objective knowledge the world has seen—and the Enlightenment values that gave rise to it. For more than 170 years we have documented, for better and for worse, the rise of science and technology and their impact on the nation and the world. We have strived to assert in our reporting, writing and editing the principle that decision making in the sphere of public policy should accept the conclusions that evidence, gathered in the spirit and with the methods of science, tells us to be true."

'Nuff said.

Doesn't Frau Merkel have her own political problems to deal with without causing another?

Trump could become another item on her problems to solve list. She should better say clearly "Yes" to Hillary. Now!
