Following Elon Musk's endorsement of the AfD, co-leader Alice Weidel declared, 'Yes! You are perfectly right!' emphasizing their stance against the current government and framing it as a fight against socialism.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz criticized Musk's comments, explaining that 'freedom of expression also applies to multi-billionaires,' but added that one can be incorrect and provide bad political advice.
The AfD is polling at around 19%, indicating significant support but facing rejection from all other parties for coalition formation, highlighting its extreme-right categorization.
A January 2024 meeting of AfD figures, including Weidel's aide, reportedly discussed a controversial 'masterplan' for deportations, underscoring the party's far-right connections in Europe.
