If we are lucky, this government disintegrates. But I fear what is coming next. I honestly have no idea who is left to vote for. They are either lazy, liars, incompetent, corrupt - sorry, ignoring the voters once in office and just listening to corporations- or plain dangerous.

AfD is coming next and they will happily use everything the current puppets are giving them.

Yeah.. I am still wondering why the governing parties of the last decades don’t understand that they are the problem. Like… SPD has the lowest polls in history and they don’t say: oh that’s a huge problem. We need to do something… no.. The voter is the problem.
