you Would have to determine a characteristic of the German Christian democracy, it would be that they rested most of their time in Power. The CDU introduced the Chancellor, or the Chancellor, around the rows joined. However, as in the final stages of Helmut Kohl, is recognized now at the end of the Era of Angela Merkel is of great, Yes, of indomitable anxiety. Everyone in the party does and says just what he wants – almost like the self-destruction since the inequality of Talenti more social-democratic competitors.
Lamentable government
For the unrest there are a whole bunch of reasons, all of which are intertwined. Since the disappointing Federal elections in autumn 2017, the Failure of the government negotiations with the Greens and the liberals, and the laborious formation of an “emergency government” with the SPD suffered by the CDU in elections heavy losses. Instead of 40 percent as in the summer of 2017, in your favor is today in the polls, often barely above 25 percent. Of the Green you had to put up with in the meantime, even a few times as the strongest party, overtaking.
Angela Merkel’s fourth government in the past nearly two years, a lamentables image. To blame the performance of the Cabinet was less than such. According to a study by the coalition ruled even more efficient and contract more faithful than many of the previous:, Up to the mid-term, she has already worked two-thirds of their projects. The public perception of this was overshadowed, however, that members of both parties talked the government is bad and only waiting to escape from her.
The SPD had declared that only with great pain, once again, to Rule and from then on, each time a new lost the election of the coalition in Berlin, the debt. They also forced in the coalition agreement a mid-term review, the fracture was the continued existence of the government from the beginning of the question. The CDU didn’t think it was much different. Merkel’s critics have not ceased to grumble about the own Chancellor and government, in addition, the CDU and the CSU even with a symbolic “final” on its refugee policy, stripped themselves. A year ago, Merkel had been relieved after a recent electoral defeat, by ceding to a surprise party presidency. With Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer their desired candidate won even the successor, but since then, everything went as well as wrong.
Chancellor
In an Effort to a the split party and their conservative opponents approach is silent, the new Boss gave up on the middle and lost also the encouragement of its supporters. A never-ending series of blunders and mistakes, damaged their authority so much, that you met the defense Minister in his own party today, only with pity.
Angela Merkel responded to the growing unrest in her party with an iron Silence. Despite unchanged high personal popularity ratings in the election this year, not fighting to see. Not logged internal political dispute publicly to the word – allegedly with the intention to allow Kramp-karrenbauer, to make a name for himself and the party. So the image of a Chancellor remained, of the for a long time no new impulses arise – neither for the country nor for the party.
Merz has pulled plans of their own
The power vacuum in recent weeks, many critics of Merkel’s and Kramp cart Builder in the CDU downright irresistible. Particularly damning, Friedrich Merz, called on the government of the own Chancellor “bad” and decreed that it “could not continue,” said. Merz wanted to meet the attack, especially his old rival, Angela Merkel, have been damaged in the past, the new party boss, who had set a year ago at the Congress barely against him and the party to go but.
While two weeks ago, the question was in the air, if Merz would start at today in Leipzig in the beginning of the end party, a revolt against the two women, it is clear now that the uprising is postponed for now. Merz knows that the CDU is not different from the SPD to win a coup to be retained: the question of the Chancellor candidacy are neither the elections in front of the door still on the Agenda. The latter is only intended for the party Congress in a year, comes to elections, it is at best, should I terminate the SPD at the beginning of December but as yet the coalition.
Merz intends to use the Congress for its purposes. The liberal wants to put as a leading head in the scene, the missed his disoriented party re-contour, direction, and self-awareness. At the same time the many to appease the suspect him to settle at the expense of the party old invoices, and to seek his personal advantage.
The Influential among the 1000 delegates that Merkel and Kramp-Karrenbauer want to continue to weaken, they will not be attack in Leipzig, probably open. But rather with controversies, applications, fretting, pushing either the leadership or the coalition partner of the SPD in the corner. To an open room battle, so hardly. So much the rest of the discipline of the party but then.
