“Outlawing”, “bursting the dam”: In its criticism of a possible red-green-red alliance for the Berlin state government, the CDU is now exclusively using the rhetorical jackhammer.
Hardly a day goes by without the Chancellor personally attacking the Greens and Social Democrats with harsh words for daring to consider a coalition with the Left. A party that, despite all justified criticism, stands on the basis of the Basic Law and which, for example in Thuringia, ensures that a CDU Prime Minister can govern and keep the right-wing extremist AfD out of power.
Open Questions
- How do the SPD and the Greens react to the pressure from the CDU?
