“Brosius-Gersdorf’s withdrawal prevents the Groko debacle prevents bigger”

“Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung”: “Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf is not the first suitable candidate who is denied to become a federal constitutional judge. But she is the first to deal with so shameful. First approval, then rejection, then disparagement. Although all of this falls back to the Union faction, her incompetent chair and also on Kanzler Merz. had been overwhelmed.

“T-Online”: “The coalition is also damaged as a whole, including its chancellor, who once gave his predecessor Scholz a ‘plumber of power’. Perhaps Friedrich Merz should better attend a quick course in this high craftsmanship before a process of this dimension repeated his own choice. To be owed to be owed.

“Stuttgarter Zeitung”: “The process has caused great damage. The coalition is weakened, because the SPD was able to keep in mind that the Union cannot comply with the populist wing. There are also long-term consequences of the Causa Brosius-Gersdorf: After the shameful coordination in the Bundestag of Union and AfD, the Christian Democrats are already demonstrating that there are already policy areas in them, in which they are already no other party is closer to the right wing. “

“Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger”: “The process is a debacle. Because the reliability of the Union as a coalition partner and thus the stability of the coalition are in question. And it is a bad sign when right -wing populist campaigns get caught in government parties. It is difficult to imagine how a coalition can continue to work on this basis. How should the SPD be sure that commitments will be met in the future? There are even more controversial projects. There will also be campaigns on other topics, possibly the first to the next judge candidates. It worked before. “

“Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung”: “The constitutional lawyer Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf has withdrawn her candidacy for the Federal Constitutional Court. This ends a spectacle in which she found herself again, since the Union of her election initially agreed to the judge, in order to then reject her. However, in the explanation of her retreat, there should also be a lot of confusion with Brosius-Gersdorf. If you do so much on your own rationality and science, you shouldn’t do so much in a difficult situation blind around. “

“Heilbronn voice”: “It is shameful that the union of mobilization by right -wing actors quickly went to the glue. And it shows how much influence right -wing populist networks have on the party. Her qualification and competence as a legal scholar cannot be denied, but that no longer played a role in the debate. The Union is responsible for this disaster. She now has to put up with the accusation that she himself raises so often against the Greens: to act ideologically. Now the damage is done and there is only one winner: the AfD. “

“Reutlinger General-Anzeiger”: “The citizen is now wondering what influence Chancellor Merz or parliamentary group leader Spahn still have on their MPs. Actually, the judge dispute should be clarified in the summer break in peace. A ‘common result’, as Friedrich Merz emphasized. The Union did not even have a conversation with Brosius-Gersdorf.

“The bell “: “Brosis-Gersdorf represents the success of the overall process and the reputation of the highest German court about his own career-a strong sign of integrity and a sense of responsibility. With her retreat, she wants to avoid that the candidates Ann-Katrin Kaufhold and Günter Spinner can no longer be used. Unjustified allegations of plagiarism – also to do self -respect. “

“Southwest Press”: “Brosius-Gersdorf prevented the fact that the black and red pile of shards will be even bigger. But the damage should also be so big enough. There were already many MPs in the SPD parliamentary group for whom a collaboration with the Union of Spahn, Chancellor Friedrich Merz and CSU boss Markus Söder is a gigantic revision. And also do not believe in the Union Group, with many elections, with many elections To be able to keep a coalition through and through unsettled Social Democrats.
