I really don’t see where you got that idea from. The idea of closer ties with the Russians was never truly there if you exclude the Gorbachev era. Anti-Americanism exists, but is limited to a pretty small group on the extreme left. It’s a rare problem overall. For the most part Germans do not agree with Americans on politics, but that’s mostly because American politics seem to be limited to two positions (which become more and more mutually exclusive), and that’s a result of the American political system.

The American people are generally well liked, even here in the former British zone of occupation.
