It's great news that Merz beat the Nazis,

but it's a little concerning that Scholz and the Social Democrats only came in third.

America gave us the Jerry Springer show so nobody should be surprised that whack jobs exist - anyone sane looking at mElon wielding a chain saw should remember that, even if he is ultra rich - The I married a horse guy,well his type is now in ultimate power probably boasting he slept with his sister

Granddaughter of judge Hans Weidel who during Hitler WW II send 20.000 people to their death. Apple does not fall far from the tree. She is against gay marriage and does not live in Germany but in Switzerland with her Sri Lankan partner Sarah Bossard. Hypocrisy at the highest level.

AfD got more votes today that the Nazi party did in the September 1930 Reichstag Election. But less than the 1932 one.

Exit polls, exit polls. Wait til the "numbers" come in (I have a bad feeling the numbers are going to show bad news for democracy).

AfD should be forbidden, as heir of the nazis

So the plan is that the CDU forms a coalition govt with the SPD and the Greens?

logty.bsky.social•4 hours ago

At the moment it seems that a govt CDU+SPD will be

anorakffm.bsky.social•4 hours ago

Merz had ruled out a coalition with the Greens… I guess depending on whether FDP and/or BSW make it it’s either CDU-SPD, barely enough votes, or CDU-FDP with a toleration/confidence-and-supply-agreement with AfD.

casadechrisso.bsky.social•4 hours ago

He hasn't ruled out the Greens, and for Ukraine this would be the best coalition too, better than the SPD for sure. His Bavarian counterpart Söder, as well as the FDP, are against the Greens, mostly for populist, culture war reasons.

He's never ruled it out when asked directly, to the contrary even he spoke of "reasonable people" in both SPD and Green party. What he said on stage is typical elections-populism.

What Fritzchen rules out and what he does afterwards are two different things. He can't be said to have any particular steadfastness or ethics. The FDP first has to get into the Bundestag and it doesn't look like that's going to happen at the moment.

Might be a game changer.

I don't like AfD support doubling, that's not ideal.

stoffel42.bsky.social•4 hours ago

FDP and BSW hopefully out is beautiful. AfD needs to be fought at every turn

Nice that FDP and BSW did not get in.

Let's hope Merz is Germany's Meloni.

It looks not good. To many security risks in this poll Up.

They’re being brainwashed by people with bad intentions and great funding.

Finally ! Here's hoping....

Well it would be pretty embarassing to promise mutiple times over months and then not send them.🫣

👏👏👏 #scholz won’t be missed

frankel2911.bsky.social•4 hours ago

If this poll is accurate and the CDU, SPD and Greens form a coalition, two of the three parties, the CDU & Greens, have already said they will provide Ukraine with Taurus missiles. It won't win the war but will exact an even greater cost from Putin and be another bargaining chip for Zelenskyy. Good.

Too little, too late.

I would say, just in time
