They are actually very similar, the CDU just isnt as extremist yet, but give it 5 years or so. Both parties promote isolation, fake news about immigrants, hate and are generally only motivated by money. Extremely corrupt. In Germany we lost when Merz became chancellor, you think we beat the Nazis, no, we voted over 50% right to far right. We just stalled the inevitable a couple of years to hopefully beat Russia in time to stop the constant flood of propaganda. Merz is powerhungry and nothing more, has been the CEO for BlackRock Germany and is doing A LOT of corrupt lobbying work for our industry.
All of that indicates he’d hate Trump, who is upending the neoliberal global capitalist order that Germany has done so well under…
On top of that, Vance and Musk openly backed Merz’s rivals in the AfD
But the CDU have done everything to appeal to AfD voters for decades. To the point that they are now so close that there’s significant overlap.
the AfD is NOT the rival of the CDU lmao
