        To be honest she’s not an angel. For German standards her policies are quite conservative. Sure she’s not Trump, Putin, Orban, Le Pen etc. But not my dream of a politician either 😅

        Well at least she seemed to have morals and decency. Let's hope she's never replaced by a Trump-like or Putin-like person. That's the way it seems the world is going sometimes

        Yes, she does have that. I‘m happy that Germany stands pretty strong against populists from the right. At least west Germany. The former eastern German states look different sadly. There could be some Trump-like figures as Ministerpresidents (governor),but not on a national level

        How about the FACT that the German people just elected her to another term? Man, ignorance must be winning in that "FACTvsIGNORANCE" struggle your tag touts.

        I think they do, you're an anti-islamic nationalist. Maybe they don't want to 31st into the discussion you're trying to push because you're a nationalist. Stop trying to replace Jews with Muslims, we don't need another holocaust. Extinguish your hatred please
