CDU in the death zone and Söder is supposed to fix it? Let me tell you a story about Markus. It says a lot about him. He has a daughter from a casual, long-term relationship with an employee at a tanning salon where he used to be a customer. The young lady is named Gloria-Sophie Burkandt, Markus Söder has officially recognized her and supports her. That is all known and perfectly fine so far. Less known is that he was simultaneously dating his current wife, Karin Baumüller. Or should one rather say, he dated Gloria's mother Ulrike Burkandt while already having a relationship with Karin Baumüller? Anyway. Karin, in any case, comes from a wealthy entrepreneurial family in Nuremberg and is obviously the much better match. Money, influence, everything is there. Very promising for a young politician with ambitions. In any case, Gloria-Sophie came into the world almost exactly a year before Markus's wedding to Karin. And everyone knows how long wedding preparations take when you want to put something nice together. And no one can tell me that a wedding at the Baumüller company is just casually pulled off from one day to the next without any planning and lead time. And yes, call me old-fashioned, but I think this says something about one’s character. Keeping all options open and obligation only towards one’s own advantage. (translated)
