That has been the saving grace of the current German coalition. Even three parties seems to be too much for Germany standards.

They still manage to push all their far-left and eco-fascist bullshit through.

Right, so why is it bad if Wagenknecht gets some votes from Die Linke, SPD and Gruene? She definitely is less dogshit than Die Linke.

According to polls she gets more votes from the AfD than all the others.

Right, but my point is that it would be worse if it had been a stronk coalition of SPD and the Greens, like Schroeder's considerably less retarded coalition.

According to polls she gets more votes from the AfD than all the others.

But overall, you still come out ahead.
