That means border closure.
Damn. Maybe Mini-MErkel isn’t so Mini-MErkel after all.
Much like the SPD desperately trying to get back the people who used to vote for them with yesterday’s Hartz IV shenanigans, Germany’s CDU 2.0 (can we call it post-Merkel yet?) is fighting to get back the voters who abandoned them in droves after Angela Merkel’s bat shit crazy migrant fiasco of 2015. Boss lady Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer has made it clear that this can and will never happen again – without pointing fingers or naming any names, of course – and has even said that her party would be prepared shut down German borders (no, really, they have borders, too) should it ever be necessary.
Odd. These are stands that the pure evil of evilness AfD has been taking from the start (that’s were the CDU voters ran off to). Now the CDU is acting as though they just figured this out all by themselves. Better late than never, I guess.
„Wir haben gesagt, als Ultima Ratio wäre das durchaus auch denkbar.”

Why is Beto O’Rourke the Ugly American of the week. He is being marketed in the U.S. as the Frat Boy version of Barack Obama, offering more hope and change. I thought Germans ate that stuff up!
Oops. Sometimes one of my ugly Americans slips in there by mistake…
