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.
My favorite is the one for the Marxistisch-Leninistische Partei Deutschlands I saw in Ecterdingen. It proudly displayed a picture of Lenin and a call for revolution. It was almost quaint. I may take it as a souvenir after the election.
As for the AfD, their internal infighting and unforced errors by candidates have compounded the hostility from the media and establishment. Instead of unifying and pitching a coherent and appealing message, they backstab each other and played into the establishment’s attempts to marginalize them.
They need to cut the crap out an focus on winning votes. We’ll see how they do this time out, but I don’t see them getting the 5% threshold for a party seat in the Bundestag.
