Merkel should be in prison for high treason for the rest of her miserable life for willfully flooding the country with Mohammadan rapists and murderers.
I am living near Stuttgart. From what I have seen, Frau Merkel (and the CDU) are viewed by a plurality (if not a majority) of Germans as the key provider of stability and economic prosperity for Germany. The immigration issue, as of now, does not get enough traction to hinder her prospects.
The other main parties the Social Democrats (SPD) and Greens are leftist/collectivist parties that want to throw the door open even further (along with an even larger welfare state).
It doesn't help that AfD has contributed to their own marginalization. Poor candidate selection and the Germans' real skittishness on racial/ethnic issues have hindered the AfD attempts to breakthrough into the mainstream. They are not seen, even by a lot of people who agree with them on immigration, as a serious, legitimate, party.
The best we can hope for is a coalition between Merkel's CDU/CSU(which is a Bavaria only party) and the Free Democrats (FDP). That party is more skeptical on immigration issues and may moderate Merkel. However they have been only a marginal performer over the last few elections and did not have a seat in the last Bundestag.
I’m in Stuttgart...don’t see any AfD election posters along the streets...CDU/CSU/FDP/Greens/Linke/weird left fringe...I hear the AfD posters are destroyed by the rabid left Antifa scum within hours.
Just appalling. I’ve never seen such a group of peoples in Europe so cowed and indoctrinated into committing national suicide by bringing in groups of people who have no intention of assimilating and every intention of destroying said countries entirely.
