While I agree that this is a trash ruling, and makes a mockery of "democracy", she's also a complete grifter thot.
Literally everything she does is for attention, from going on a reality dating show years ago, to putting her face on the AfD posters (she was literally a model, after all), to then running and getting herself elected.
Not saying that she's wrong, or that she probably doesn't believe at least some of what she says, but I do feel that the whole "being a politician" thing is more of a LARP, for her, and that she'll eventually quit, and become a "media figure" or "talking head" or somesuch.
It's not like she's the only one to do that (I can think of a couple in Aus, who did similar), but I think that it's important to point that out.
Most attractive politician for a while, though. I'll give her that much credit.
Having said all that, she's younger than me and has already achieved far more than I probably ever will, which is... More than just down to genetics, chromosomes and country of origin. So... I probably shouldn't criticize her too much.
Whatever her true motives, and however sincere or otherwise she may be, at least she is doing something to fight back. Which is more than can be said for me, or a lot of people.
So yeah. Good for/on her. We could do with more politicians who stick to their guns.
To be exceedingly cynical about this...

FWIW, I don't really trust AfD. I've said that before.
AfD aka Alternative für Deutschland aka ALTER (another) + NATIVE (offspring)...trust implies holding onto; off-spring implies letting go.
