The AfD doubles its result in the Bundestag election. The party leader reports about the congratulations from billionaire Elon Musk from the USA and former Bayern players.
AfD boss Alice Weidel, according to her own statement, missed a congratulations from billionaire Elon Musk after the Bundestag election. “I received lost calls from the USA this morning when I looked at my phone or looked at it, including Elon Musk, who personally congratulated,” said Weidel at a press conference in Berlin.
She announced that she will make calls today, “with whom, I will not tell you here now because the certain level of confidentiality is subject”. One is in exchange and in conversation with all sides “and that includes the Trump administration in Washington”. Musk, the US President Donald Trump advises, had campaigned for the AfD in the election campaign.
Congratulations for the AfD of former national players
Co-party leader Tino Chrupalla added that he received congratulations from two national players and former players of FC Bayern Munich. “Therefore, best regards to Uli Hoeneß.” Chrupalla did not want to name names after the press conference. According to him, it is also former players of the national team.
The sentence in the direction of the Honorary President of FC Bayern may have been a swipe on his AfD-critical statements. Hoeneß said at the funeral service in the Munich Allianz Arena in honor of the died companion Franz Beckenbauer in mid-January 2024 that he would wish for the World Cup mood back in Germany at the time, but “I don’t want to have the AfD with me”.
