I generally agree with the notion, but it’s a bit rich coming from the man who declared the greens their “main enemy” instead of the far-right AfD, whose populist rhetoric he instead tried to copy. I hope this is him finally realizing who the real enemies are and that we need to actually do something about them.
Yeah… No. He had so many chances. Copying the AfD was a strategic decision by the current leadership of the CDU/CSU and they will not revise it, even if it is the last thing they will do in their careers. I wish it would be different. But it isn’t.
