Markus Söder treated the Greens like the last dirt. Now they are supposed to secure a majority to the Union for the billion dollar package. The CSU boss is the blindness in person.
Can one still call a large coalition of a government of the Union and SPD, which could no longer even win half of the votes? But of course! More than ever! The name Groko is now derived from the gigantic extent of the debts that will make this coalition. It is derived from the size of the voter deception that CDU Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz is responsible for. And she derives from the fact that this coalition in Markus Söder has the politician in her ranks, who takes out the greatest outrageousness of everyone. Merz’s broken word is bad. But Söder’s contemplation is much worse.
Markus Söder is now making Robert Habeck’s policy
The future coalition has approved around one trillion euros. For this purpose, she wants to have the old Bundestag literally changed the Basic Law at the last minute. This monster puppy may be right. But politics is not just what is in the end as a result. Politics is also how something comes about. And the role of Markus Söder is particularly time off.
Schwarz-Rot wants to put up a special fund for the modernization of Germany, for which debts are accepted. There was no question in the election campaign by Friedrich Merz and Markus Söder. The debt brake is reformed for the financing of the Bundeswehr. Friedrich Merz and Markus Söder rejected this in this form until the election day. And nobody says that the need for more money and the question of where it should come from have only become clear in the past few days. Merz and Söder didn’t want to hear it in the election campaign and certainly not answered.
All that is still missing is the consent of the Greens because the future coalition needs a two -thirds majority in the Bundestag for its project. And that’s exactly what you really have to melt on your tongue.
For months, Markus Söder pulled over the Greens, insulted the Minister of Economy, made fun of the Foreign Minister. Friedrich Merz was also not nice to the Greens, but it still looked like the usual hardness in the political argument. For Söder, however, the Greens were no longer a competing party, but the epitome for everything that is supposed to go wrong in Germany. The hardness, with which Söder bite in Robert Habeck, no longer belonged to the political, but in the psychological, if not into the medical-psychiatric main seminar.
But now the Greens, the Söder, treated like the last dirt, are to be the majority procurement for the SPD, CDU and also for the CSU. After the election, they should share the money for a policy that the Union, but Robert Habeck did not sketch before the election, when Söder was treated like the body.
In the old Bundestag with the Union and the SPD, the Greens are supposed to vote a two -thirds majority in order to provide a coalition of hundreds of billions of euros, which this coalition then spends in the new Bundestag with a simple majority without the Greens. They are supposed to lift the hand for an infrastructure program, from which money will also flow into the train that has rotten several CSU transport ministers for years. And they are supposed to give the SPD, CDU and CSU the money from which a lot flows back to Bavaria again in good old tradition.
In the end, the Greens will vote. You will also drink the cocoa through which you pulled Merz and especially Söder. You will do it, even if the CSU general secretary blasphemes at Ash Wednesday in Passau that the Greens would soon have more sexes than mandates. You will be careful: do for Germany because they take state policy responsibility for the whole country seriously, which Markus Söder only keeps in the mouth.
