Shortly after the very personal statements made by Peter Feldmann became known on Thursday, the second day of the trial before the Frankfurt Regional Court, on which the mayor gave the public a deep insight into his private life through his lawyers, the first to speak on social networks.

The woman from Frankfurt, who is known as the "woman with the sign" because she has been campaigning for Feldmann's deselection for months, writes that she "never wanted to know these things about the Frankfurt mayor".

Unfortunately, Feldmann and his defense attorneys "did these things public," pointing out that in this way they could make the protestation of innocence credible.

What is meant are the statements of the lawyers that Feldmann only wanted a "love affair" with his later wife Zübeyde, while she had demanded that a marriage promise be kept.

The couple got married because of a pregnancy Feldmann did not want.

He wanted an abortion but couldn't get it.

"Peter Feldmann betrays his wife and child in order to save his own skin," comments an employee of Rosemarie Heilig, head of the Green Environment Department, about the mayor's statements: "In terms of character, this man is on the same level as Donald Trump." Other local politicians also speak of a "completely Nazi ' and 'bad character'.

"I feel sorry for the child"

"Eeewww .

.

.

what is the alleged child friend saying?," asks Cachola Schmal, Director of the German Architecture Museum.

"The poor child" he adds and calls for voters to be voted out: "People, go vote on November 6th." City councilors also spoke up.

Carolin Friedrich (CDU) wonders: "Wasn't there something with an exclusive photo love story for the wedding in the Höchst Castle?

Aren't his daughters supposedly the most important thing to him (which is why he also liked to cancel appointments)?” Yannik Schwander, also CDU, writes: “It's really so inhuman.

I feel sorry for the child.”

When Feldmann tried to apologize to the mayor of Frankfurt late Thursday evening for his appearance in court on the same day via the official Facebook channel of the mayor of Frankfurt under the keyword "Apologies to my daughter", the viral excitement did not subside.

Feldmann “sacrificed” his daughter for Julia Eberz (Die Grünen).

The apology in which Feldmann assures his daughter "I love you" doesn't tear it out anymore.

Eberz says she expected a lot from him, "but not that".

Green politician Uwe Paulsen is "speechless" overall: Feldmann always acts like a victim, now as someone who was forced by a supposed Turkish code of honor to marry the woman.

Officially, the parties in the Römer did not speak up this Friday.

SPD faction leader Ursula Busch only says on request: Feldmann has decided to make very private things public.

But you don't want to "comment on such private things publicly".
