Knife attacks and crime in general are themes consistently being exploited by Frau Weidel, the very impressive and articulate leader of the AFD. It is not a coincidence that this comes at a time when Donald Trump is moving against crime in Washington DC because the AFD platform is perfectly interchangeable with MAGA.
That is the upside. The downside is that the AFD openly wants to trade with Russia and China and exclude American nukes from Europe and reduce or eliminate American military forces in Germany.
One could say there is no daylight between Trump and Weidel on this issue as well.
