The thought Merkel and many in the CDU, such as the current candidates for party Chairman and Chancellor candidacy, Armin Laschet, for wrong.
With hindsight, but mainly due to heavy losses in the polls, the CSU turned the boat and pays homage to since then, and this is particularly true for the party Chairman Markus Söder, the Chancellor.
