You're putting in a lot of energy to ignoring me and not answering the simple questions I'm asking

So if not Democracy, what is it? Sounds like up for grabs and a ‘to be determined’ scenario.

She looks like a leader that I can get behind

Imagine that. Just like the French gamed their elections to frick over the "far right" party, so to did the Germans and now they are suffering the same fate.

Here's hoping nationalists take control and save them.

It must be an international phenomenon that attractive women embrace conservative ideology.

expect a AFD uprising

I’m sure they’ll gain seats. But there’s basically no scenario where AfD can form a government. The other parties won’t even entertain a coalition with AfD.

Coalition is the name of the game in German politics.

Correct. That will eventually produce a uprising by the citizens. When the second largest vote share party has no say the citizens will become ungovernable

The second largest voting bloc is routinely left out of parliamentary governments. That’s usually who loses the election

Incorrect. In France National Rally got the most votes but less seats. This is not democracy. The people will eventually uprise.

How come I never hear anything about these governments that collapse?

So what does this mean for Germany over the next six months?

What happens tomorrow?

No it really isn’t. Generally speaking, plurality winners enter into governing coalitions with other parties. It’s rarely the second place finisher because that’s usually the main opposition party. Giving one example doesn’t disprove that general occurrence.

France doesn’t have proportional representation. Neither do we. Racking up large margins in safe seats doesn’t win you anything in the French Chamber of Deputies. RN didn’t win because they can’t get a majority alone, and all of the other parties would rather work with each other than the RN.
