Summary
Friedrich Merz, leader of Germany’s CDU and chancellor candidate, warned that the far-right AfD seeks to destroy his party. He emphatically denied any future cooperation with them.
Recent parliamentary votes included AfD support for anti-immigration legislation, sparking controversy. Critics argue that breaking the established “firewall” undermines democratic principles.
Mass protests erupted across Germany over the perceived recklessness of this move.
Merz reaffirmed his commitment to European unity and robust trade policies while denouncing extremist influences threatening traditional values.
Merz is a pathological liar (even more so than the usual politicians), he also has categorically denied cooperating with the AfD and even threatened anyone in the CDU to do so with expulsion from the party, only a few weeks before cooperating with them himself.
If he tells you that the sun is shining outside, better bring an umbrella and a flashlight, because most likely you’ll actually find pitch black night and pouring rain.
If he keeps flipping like that we can hook him up to a turbine and use him as a renewable energy source.
But what should we do with the toxic byproducts of this kind of energy production?
Probably shut down all their generating capacity and then hope Sweden can solve the mess they’ve created for them. Ideally at a point in time when they’d create a massive strategic weakness for Europe.
