What a difference a couple of months of lies and betrayals make.
Two days ago, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, led by Alice Weidel, was in a statistical tie with Chancellor-Elect Friedrich Merz's Christian Democrats (CDU). AfD was, however, still iced out of any government participation, even as Merz lied and finagled his way in efforts to form a coalition government with anyone but them.
The German public, watching Merz's negotiations go down, their votes for change cast aside in the frenzied deal making, and their few remaining freedoms cast to the wind, had an almost instantaneous case of buyers' remorse.
As of the poll released this morning, Germans have confirmed they are disillusioned with a government that hasn't even formed yet, are rejecting the malleable Merz...

If the AfD is reviled but most popular, one has to ask, reviled by whom? The Marxist Left?
And dirty, goathumping, neck chopping, 'splody head moose limbs.
but will the enlightened European Union of Weasels allow the Afd to govern if elected?
They’ll probably do to the AfD what they did to Marine Le Pen
The WEF, the Deep State, the New World Order... the whole happy family run by Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, and others of their ilk.
ironically strong in eastern Germany
Ironically, no. This goes back to before 1990 (Wall coming down). From end of WW II to 1990....there just weren’t that many migrants in DDR (old East Germany). So this acceptance of migration is mostly a West German thing.
From 1990 to around 2014...they (the ‘Easties’) quietly went along, and when the crisis started up with Syria/Iraq...acceptance in the east wasn’t there. I might add...there’s also more of a anti-US/pro-Russia feeling in the east as well. Unified isn’t what you might think.
