With well over 40% for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), Saxony-Anhalt has witnessed a landmark election night. DW's reporters were on the ground.
the fascists likely didn’t get a super majority, but might be in that state’s government as major coalition partner anyway.
long term: political disorder within germany’s inter-state federal politics, possible political firewall (“Brandmauer”) against an entire federal state, possible conflict with NATO over logistics, Germany “being busy with itself” etc…
Normalization: go out and do protests, interviews, etc. People hate your ideas still, but you just keep saying them until they’re normal.
Mainstream: established parties get scared, start talking the radical positions to get voters back, thereby proving that the positions are actually fine! So why vote for the cheap copy then, if you can have the original?
Power: win elections, start dismantling some Democratic institutions.
Gleichschaltung: take over total power via manufactured coup etc. Then dismantle anything that’s left.

Didn’t their main candidate rule out doing any coalition to build a government, i.e. government only if the AfD has the absolute majority?
