As to be expected. Thanks to the backstabbing FDP. I hope they vanish.
They will come back. As they do every time. Just wait one or two election periods, then they'll be back under new leadership, with yet another flashy advertising campaign targeting dumb first time voters, who will, once more, fall for that trick.
The FDP desn't need many members nor many voters to maintain its financing, they get plenty of
donationsbribes in return for their services to the ultra rich. They can and will manage a few years with bad election results.I am honestly not too sure about that. The AFD has very similar positions and is able to actually win elections.
If they actually win enough to gain power, there won't be any future election periods anymore.
I'd prefer not to contemplate that increasingly realistic possibility, but here we are.
