You shouldn't be sensitive during election campaign times - but of course everyone is.
Regardless of whether it is about misconduct by a political competitor or about allegations against one's own troops.
Everything is impaled that could serve its own cause.
Wolfgang Schmidt, one of the most important employees of the SPD chancellor candidate Olaf Scholz, rightly pointed out that the press release on the search in the Scholz ministry reads more clearly than the search warrant.
The SPD miners have already pointed out that the head of the responsible public prosecutor's office is a CDU member and a local politician.
Nevertheless, Schmidt was probably not allowed to publish the decision.
In contrast to his boss, Schmidt is an excellent communicator.
Now he is damaging Scholz because he overshot the mark.
That is the real charge.
And not whether Schmidt typed his Scholz jubilation during his presumably considerably extended working hours as Secretary of State for Finance.
Attacks against political confidants can also quickly backfire. It was like that when the SPD tried to pinpoint the influential Laschet man Nathanael Liminski. The party had to quickly repack the video, in which his alleged reactionary family picture was taken up, after even more modern Liminski quotes had surfaced.
