The German far-right party, Alternative for Germany (AfD), could be closing in on power at the state level for the first time since the Nazi regime's defeat in World War II 81 years ago.
Polling suggests the party is far ahead of its rivals in Saxony‑Anhalt and, crucially, within striking distance of an outright majority that would defeat mainstream parties' traditional Brandmauer—or "firewall"—against a far-right government.
Germany's electoral system of proportional representation means that most governments at the national and regional level are coalitions. The "firewall" is an agreement of non‑cooperation in which mainstream parties do not govern with, or rely on votes from, the far right, especially the AfD.
But a theoretical distribution projected by Dawum, a firm which aggregates polling has suggested that the AfD could get an outright majority, eliminating the impact of the firewall to keep the far-right out.

Didn’t Rush explain how Newsweek sold for $1 some twenty years ago?
Nope. No bias there.
I wonder what Newsweak would call Conrad Adenauer.
Ooh scary.
Calling the NAZI’s “far right” is a bigger lie than saying Stacey Abrams has anorexia.
AFD: German Far-Right on Brink of First State Government Since WWII

When you make up the definition of far right as you go, that’s meaningless.
Anyone surprised that they had to try to link the AfD to Nazis?
If Newsweek wants to (inaccurately) compare the AfD to Nazis, then who is the AfD’s “Hitler”?
They seem to believe that the:
National Socialist German Workers Party was far right??
Does that mean they believe the National Socialist Democrat Workers Party is also Far Right??
So the AfD is the same as the Nazis? Is that the BS that Newsweak is trying to sell? Its just so wrong that I don't know where to begin.
AfD is the only anti-immigrant German party. The rest are varying degrees of “Complete Replacement is Good!”.
The election is in September, we will see how it goes.

It’s also probably of no use. People so stupid to write that won’t understand or absorb good arguments. It might be interesting to study how society, some of it, support such absolute idiots. What jobs would they get if they were properly paid for their skills?
So, AfD=naughtZee?
Calling the National Socialists “far right” is bizarre.
They were literally socialists. Government control of everything.
The only real difference in the Nazis and the Russian communists was terminology and who was the boss.

I think a difference is that communists have a more severe form of mental illness and make the economy collapse faster.
Really?
Well at least they’re not the Far-Left, like The National Arbiter Zocialistsch Partie (NAZI)!
News to Newsweak, the WEF is the current Nazi party.
The NAZIs were not "Far-Right." They were "Far-Left."
"Socialism" is in their name.
