CDU Exposes the Chancellor's Nervous Breakdown!

CDU General Secretary Carsten Linnemann believes that the “Fritze Merz” remarks by Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) are not a calculated move, but an expression of nervousness. “He shows nerves because everyone knows, even in his entourage, that we say to our fellow humans, friends, and children that one addresses people by their names” Linnemann said in the RTL and ntv show “Frühstart” on Wednesday.

“I would always say: Olaf Scholz, or: the Chancellor. You don’t do that and then insult the name. You simply don’t do that” the General Secretary said. “A Chancellor who speaks of respect towards fellow human beings from the outside should also do so in his language. Otherwise, he is not credible.”

Linnemann also misses redness in the topic of pensions from the Chancellor. “If he also lies, as for example, when he says we want the pensions to decrease, then that’s simply nonsense. You don’t do that. I simply want redness, honesty, and a hard confrontation in the matter” Linnemann said.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) went on a confrontational course with CDU leader Friedrich Merz after the lost confidence vote in the Bundestag. Asked about an alleged anecdote that Merz shared before the confidence vote in the Bundestag, Scholz told the “ZDF-Heute-Journal” on Monday evening: “Fritze Merz likes to tell tall tales.”

Merz had claimed in the Bundestag that Scholz had only been present at an EU summit and not said a word. In response to a question from another colleague, he allegedly replied with “No, you didn’t say anything either.
