The far right doesn’t even need to win directly. Even within conservative parties, such as Germany’s CDU, the populists make it to the top. They have good people with real solutions up to a state level, maybe more than any other party, but the new chancellor and most of the ministers from his own party are populists.

Conservatives with a real vision and plan might soon suffer the same fate as McCain and Romney.

This has a whole chain of consequences. Problems are not solved and increase, the far right gains.

Also, the current government coalition of the two formerly major parties didn’t even get half of the votes, resulting in less acceptance of the democratic process and legitimacy of the government. Not a big difference to the electoral college problem in the USA.

His tone is quite different with Kim Jong Un and Putin.
