FAR RIGHT WINS IN GERMANY! AfD Stuns the Political Establishment

PoliticsPublished 9/8/2026
Germany's political establishment just got rocked. Alternative for Germany (AfD) scored a stunning result as dissatisfaction with Chancellor Friedrich Merz's government surges. TMI breaks down the numbers discussed on the show: 87% of surveyed voters said they were dissatisfied with Merz's government, while another poll found three-quarters believed the chancellor personally damaged his party's performance. Behind the political earthquake are major economic pressures: cost of living, pensions, a stagnant economy, unemployment and long-term population decline. AfD hopes the result can become a springboard toward national power in 2029. From TMI Ep. 457 with Manila Chan, Ted Rall and Producer Robby.
