Wirting around Weidel

Insidious AfD strategy or chance? The Union MP Tilman Kuban raises allegations against Alice Weidel and her party because of a flyer-and himself harvests criticism.
In the election campaign, the AfD works with various strategies, often the manipulation of the voters is accused. CDU politician Tilman Kuban, formerly federal chairman of the Junge Union, also expresses similar criticism in a video of X.
Kuban can be seen at the train station and turns directly to the users: “There is again a lot of fishing on the right edge. Did you see that?” Says the 37-year-old. This is followed by a moody music that shows an AfD flyer with Alice Weidel’s face. A person in the video works on him and taps on a house next to whom a man and a woman can be seen with her child. Apparently, users should pay attention to the position.
Because the next step is the flyer against the light of a floor lamp. The picture of Weidel on the other side seems to be through so that it appears next to the family. What can be clearly recognized: The window of the house is now placed directly between its nose and mouth. It looks like the AfD’s candidate for Chancellor has a “Hitlerbart”.
“One or the other of you may say: Hmm, it looks more like an accident. No, that is a usual stitch to pick up the last Nazi voters,” comments Kuban afterwards. “This is not guaranteed to be a conservative and reputable party of this AfD. It is not eligible and Ms. Weidel is guaranteed not to be a chancellor.”
The #noafd Has released a new flyer. From because of conservative or accident. Exactly with such actions, you want to deliberately address Nazis as a voter.

AfD countered allegations against Weidel usual provocative
In his post, Kuban disregarded that the CDU had brought a decision -making application for its migration policy with the help of the AfD a few days earlier in the Bundestag. “That is why you only work with those on Wednesdays and Fridays and not the rest of the week,” writes a user maliciously.
In the usual provocative manner, the AfD also reacted to Cuban’s allegations. The party posted in which a person holds a picture of CDU Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz against sunlight. This is a video montage, because Merz ‘face suddenly becomes that of Robert Habeck. An allusion to a possible coalition between the Union and the Greens. The flyer criticized by Cuban is “harmless”, the post says.
It is difficult to prove whether the AfD has deliberately designed the flyer in this way. In addition, it cannot be ruled out that Cuban and the CDU only want to polish up their image after the joint coordination with Weidel and Co. in the Bundestag.
