‘Who Ya Gonna Hate’? Merkel’s Exit Diminishes German Right-Wing Party Relevance

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is facing a decline in popularity, with left-leaning Greens, referring to themselves as ‘the alternative to the Alternative.’

The AfD is polling at around 20 percent compared to AfD’s 15 percent, making them the country’s strongest party after German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDC) — Christian Social Union (CSU) bloc.

But is is her avowed enjoyment of rock and roll, particularly the Australian juggernaut AC/DC, which is thought to be most comment-worthy, according to local Saarland press.
