The establishment’s supposed love of democracy ends exactly when democracy—as expressed by the popular vote—stops loving the establishment.
And so, with the AfD looking increasingly likely to gain power in one or more German states after next year’s elections—especially in Saxony-Anhalt, where it recently crossed the 40% mark in a regional poll for the first time—mainstream figures are preparing to make it as difficult as possible for the party to govern. That is, if they can’t simply strip the AfD of its hard-won power altogether.
Politicians are considering destroying documents before the opposition enters office, and even handing state power to (mainstream) federal officials. And they are so convinced of their righteousness that they don’t mind discussing these options in public.
SPD Bundestag member Sebastian Fiedler said over the weekend that “if the scenario becomes reality after all and the AfD achieves an absolute majority in a federal state … we have a massive security problem!”

Hmmmm...sounds familiar 🙄
The SPD could just gather all the state documents into the Reichstag building in Berlin and then set it on fire to protect German democracy from the people’s will.
The files they delete will be the ones that implicate themselves, plain and simple.
not sure if they as bad as the autopen guy?
