U.S. President Donald Trump attributed the ​win of Germany's far-right Alternative for ‌Germany (AfD) party in a state election to existing immigration ​rules and regulations ​that he cast as "horrible."

"Wow! The ⁠Populist Party in Germany ​just had a really big ​night. They finally got tired of the absolutely horrible Immigration ​rules and regulations which ​have hurt Germany so badly," Trump ‌wrote ⁠on Truth Social on Tuesday.

The AfD surged into first place in state ​elections in ​Saxony-Anhalt ⁠on Sunday, putting a far-right party within ​reach of power ​at ⁠the state level for the first time since ⁠World ​War Two.

Correct.
Same thing will happen in France and the UK.

50% of Germany's social welfare expenditures go to migrants.

That means benefits could be double for Germans (or beneficiaries doubled) at no extra cost.

Just imagine how pissed off that makes working class Germans.

The problem with AFD is that they openly support the invasion of Europe by Islamic Chechen troops, Communist North Korean troops, and NeoSoviet Russian troops - these three are forming an Alliance and they are attacking Christian Ukraine three against one...

As such, AFD is a pro Islamo-NeoSoviet-Commie organization.

What are you? Zelensky’s official tongue bath attendant? AfD doesn’t give two sh*ts about the Russia-Ukraine purse fight because they have their own county to save from going down the crap hole

AFD is willing to let anti-Christian communist troops from North Korea and Islamic troops from Chechnya together with their close friends NeoSoviet friends continue to invade Christian Ukraine… and to let Russia continue to ship arms to Iran so they can continue to hit US bases like they just did again a few hours ago in Jordan…

Why are you supporting the AFD and the anti-American : Iran-Russia-North Korea-China Alliance?

Why is AFD letting ARMED Islamic troops invade a highly Christian country like European Ukraine ?

Are you opposing Christian religion?

A bald-faced lie wrapped in a distortion of the truth!

  1. As short a time ago as the 1980s, the AfD would have been considered no more "right" than, say, the Bavarian CSU!
  2. Numerous archly conservative parties were in government on the state level after WWII.
The author of this hit-piece is suffering from Stage IV "History began five minutes ago"-itis!

“Such bullshit, I swear you Ukraine stooges are so delusional.”

>>>>>>>>>>>

What is bullshit ?

Since you and I are presumably responsible mature individuals, it is evident that neither you air I are neutral. Neutrality is for people with no courage and lack of character.

Thus, here comes the tough question for you and I... where we have to take a stance and chose a side :

1) Are we supporting the Islamo-NeoSoviet-Commie / Iran-Russia-North Korea-China Alliance?

or...

2) Are we supporting Christian Ukraine defending its borders against that Alliance?

Since I’m a conservative, I support answer “2”.

What is your choice?

I reject your idea that these are the only options. And again I say bullshit!

Your love of the little piano pounding pecker man has distorted your thinking. You are living in an alternate reality.

You say that anyone opposing crime (like I do) is living in an alternative reality?

So… how do call those who refuse to condemn the Iran-Russia-North Korea-China Alliance ?
