Musk supports AfD: Germany before turbulent elections on February 23!

Germany faces a political earthquake: the elections on February 23 could change everything!

An outcry goes through Germany! The US billionaire Elon Musk has provided his support for the controversial right-wing extremist Alternative for Germany (AfD). This is done at a critical time, since the Federal Republic is preparing for the elections on February 23 after the government under Chancellor Olaf Scholz has gone to its knees.

The AfD, which is in second place in the current surveys, could turn the political landscape upside down. A victory could endanger the formation of a stable government by the center-right or center-left parties. But the established parties have already positioned themselves clearly: a coalition with the AfD is out of the question for them!

Elon Musk interferes!

"Only the AfD can save Germany", announced Musk in a provocative post on its platform X. The richest person in the world, who has spoken out for other right-wing extremists and anti-immigration-friendly parties in Europe, causes excitement and unrest.

The reactions from German politics are clear. The Musk, Dennis Radtke, described Musk as a "threat to democracy in the western world". He criticized that an influential player of the future US government interfered in the German election campaign and X has transformed X into a "disinformation slingshot".

Alex Schaefer also said indignantly: "Musk’s statements are completely unacceptable. We are closely connected to the Americans, but now courage is asked to defend ourselves against this interference!"

The government's reaction

The federal government has taken note of Musk’s provocative statement, but avoided an opinion. Chancellor Scholz emphasized that freedom of expression also applies to multimilliardaries, even if they sometimes say "false things". The political mood is tense and the elections are just around the corner.

In the middle of this political turbulence, Musk also criticized the Italian judges, who have questioned the legality of measures to combat illegal immigration. His statements raise questions: Is this the beginning of a new era of political influence by tech mogule?

The elections on February 23 could not only significantly influence the future of the AfD, but also the entire political landscape of Germany. The question remains: Will Musk's influence from the United States mobilize the German voters or will he encounter resistance? Time will show it!
