If you talk to a German they consider her right leaning lol. The average German offers their wife to immigrants as a form of self hate though so who cares what they think
Most Germans hate immigrants from what I’ve heard.
I’m not German nor am I educated on German politics so I’m not qualified to fully comment, but from what I see personally, I think she genuinely does try to be a good person but is just somewhat brainwashed by the sole liberalism that has infected the world.
Merkel is a pure career politician.
She is the successor of Kohl who was a decent chancellor (reunification of Germany, ...). It was basically a mentorship. She was prepped to be the next chancellor candidate for the CDU (her party).
Merkel herself has successfully eliminated all opposition within her party. There was absolutely no alternative to her in the CDU.
Which actually is a big problem for her party right now, since we will vote again this year. And all possible candidates are utter shit.
People praise her constantly for being "calm and collected and never overreacting."
What really happens is that she usually waits a few days until she makes a public statement. Then the statement is exactly tailored to what the majority of people think. It's a fabricated statement to make sure her ratings stay up.
It's basically impossible to know what she really thinks about an issue.
The only big exception is her "refugees welcome" in 2015. And it backfired immensely, and accelerated the rise of the AfD (right wingers) in Germany.
She’s über liberal, too, and all liberals hate Trump. That’s a pretty big fuckup then.
