Cox criticized the CDU because of Hendrik Wüst's statement that they would not allow the AfD to take over the country.

Ulrich Vosgerau wrote that Friedrich Merz's politics would bring even less support to the Union in the next federal elections than in the previous ones. At the same time, in his estimation, mainly the few critics of this policy would lose their mandates and thus have no influence in the future. As a comparison, Vosgerau cited the "Berliner Kreis," a group of Union members of parliament who opposed Angela Merkel's political line after the federal elections in 2017. Nevertheless, that line continued; after the 2021 elections, the circle largely disappeared as a group of members of parliament. To his recollection, only Klaus-Peter Willsch still had a mandate. Vosgerau described the development as a vicious circle: The attempt to correct Union politics through voter decisions effectively brings about the opposite and further facilitates the decline. #Bundestagswahl #Union #Politik (translated)
