As long as the Chancellor remains? Hardly a day passes without any new excitement. Germany is facing much more important issues. However, the unresolved leadership question answering in the way. A Comment.
Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer not “want to operate from from willfully,” the detachment of the Chancellor. What are the poor supposed to say different? After 14 years of state, Angela Merkel, has reached the stage of Transfiguration. Even the humiliated Horst Seehofer praises you recently (again) as “the Best”. This woman cannot simply be set aside. The mere attempt to do so would destroy the CDU for always.
Berlin is a paralyzed leadership under Angela Merkel
And yet, the restlessness that triggers every word to the theme from the CDU-top shows how much the unresolved leadership question is currently all in-kind political Considerations, in Berlin, is superimposed on and charged. In the CO2 control debate, such as the CDU shown to be weak and disoriented. This is a Problem: for Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, whose popularity values fall as a Chancellor in waiting each week in (which can cause spoiling of power, was able to observe the CDU least in the case of the little sister CSU).
especially a Problem for the country was born from it. Germany makes a paralyzed leadership, while reeling in the downturn. The economic forecasts tend to be steeply downward; the public coffers are plundered, after many fat years; the auto industry is blowing, the Wind is icy in the face; the energy transition threatens to fail, because of the construction of the Store and lines will be deported for years on wanton way.
appeal to Merkel’s government: It is no longer enough in Berlin
Each of these problems is in itself no reason to panic. But in the aggregate they constitute a significant potential threat, especially in combination with the carelessness with the key actors after the years of seemingly never-ending boom through the land of sleepwalking.
The Republic has long lived well on the proceeds of schröder’s Agenda. Now the policy needs to understand-that it is no longer enough to manage Germany, and by Distributing gifts to shut up, as do the Grand coalition and its Chancellor since the inauguration of the new government.

Berlin: Merkel shuns election campaign
It is symptomatic of how Merkel in the election campaign avoids the market places. But what you should preach to the people there, too? It is not there, the plans, which could make the country to weather the gathering storm. Not about strategies on the statement of the prosperity of the export world champion in an increasingly commercial world enemy, the strange, otherworldly Merkel-Republic, but about expropriation, nationalization, and basic pensions, in their enjoyment by the will of the SPD, without distinction, the poor and the Wealthy should come to be discussed. And if you have the money, what’s the point? Then tax the big drum stirred for a new CO2 – the climate will thank the dumb choice of the people. Whose business model is based on distributing other people’s money, the ideas will never run out.
The Chancellor has led the country for 14 years, usually with a steady Hand, a good through some turbulence across the face, and the voters (up to the asylum crisis) in a kind of twilight sleep offset. Now it is time for a Wake-up call. If Angela Merkel no longer has the power, should you leave the office. That would be sovereign.
