The worst part is, that
#Merz had the opportunity to change course after his party got the majority in the Spring2025 election. He reigns Germany doing the politics of the Greens. The reasons are deep.
Merz
#lifedream was to become chancellor. There's nothing he wants more than that. He will sell everything to be chancellor. He did sell everything.
He sold the future of Germany.
Merz' party, the once conservative
#CDU, is lead by one of the most corrupt politicians in Germany who wasted billions on botched deals. Almost all CDU politicians are drowning in corruption scandals. The CDU is politically so weak, that they need the votes of the coalition party SPD, and most of the time also the Greens.
Only combined can they successfully oppress the opposition
#AfD.
That's why the CDU does everything the Greens and SPD say. They are
#pressable.
But that's just the politics. It's deeper.
The state attorneys, the governmental media, the private press and news outlets are almost 100% aligned with the leftist & greenish ideas. The left successfully planted good people in positions of power. Years ago already.
The bureaucratic apparatus is dominant leftist! The state quota is 60%. These people, who are voters, will not accept a change. They have been successfully indoctrinated for 70 years now with climate change, UN, happy globalism, the guilt complex, angst. Merz can not and will not act against these bureaucrats.
Not even terrorism can sway him.
The antifa committed lots of terrorist attacks in recent years. Yet they still get governmental funding. But Merz can't disavow leftist NGOs, not even Terror groups as antifa, as many politicians of SPD, the Greens, The Left, openly declare themselves antifa. The finance minister is antifa!
Merz believes in Blackrock, his old employer. Believes in the UN, the rule of technocrats. He has not a single independent thought in his head. He truly wants globalism.
So, Merz and his conservative CDU must continue the left way because Merz must remain chancellor.
It's his life dream, you know.
