Why it took the former Bundeswehr officer Uwe Junge eight years to realize that he was surrounded in the AfD by "Nazi sympathizers", "opportunistic elected officials", "political fortune-tellers" and "bleating regulars" remains his secret. The former state and parliamentary group chairman of the AfD in Rhineland-Palatinate used his resignation four weeks before the federal election to a general settlement, especially with Alexander Gauland. Like Gauland, the politician, who comes from the conservative part of the CDU, declares the power struggle with the nationalist and unofficially still very lively “wing” around right-wing winger Björn Höcke as lost and with it the “AfD project” as a failure. A process of discovery that his colleague Jörg Meuthen may not face until after September 26th. It is a processwhich before Junge and Meuthen several "commoners" who had disappeared into oblivion, such as the former AfD chairman and Gauland ally Frauke Petry, went through.
The fact that boy was considered a moderator within the AfD is bizarre anyway. His homophobic failures during the European Football Championship, when he called Manuel Neuer's rainbow captain's armband “fagot armband”, testify to the opposite. It is a good joke that he was threatened with expulsion from a party whose program primarily included resentment.
