Markus Söder often emphasizes that his political place is in Munich.
But he is at home in Nuremberg, which the CSU boss also demonstrates on Instagram.
A picture becomes food for a “Today Show” comedian.
Munich - It's strange.
Although it covers a large part of his face, the FFP2 mask has become Markus Söder's distinguishing feature during the Corona crisis.
The CSU boss wears a copy at almost every public appointment, on the right side of which the blue and white coat of arms of Bavaria is emblazoned.
Behind it is probably the most famous face of the Free State.
Because the father of the country wants to set a good example during the pandemic, he only rarely appears unmasked on his social media channels.
This also applies to a post with which Söder refers to a further easing step in his hometown of Nuremberg.
The incidence there has consistently been in the double-digit range since May 21.
From which the restaurateurs also benefit.
Söder in the Corona crisis: Visit to outdoor catering in Nuremberg
“Outside catering is now also open in Nuremberg.
There are still free places, ”writes Söder about a photo that shows him sitting at a table under the protection of umbrellas.
There is a cold drink in front of him.
He wears a jacket with a collar.
And of course a mask.
Which directly earns him the ridicule in the comments.
Especially since there are numerous other tables and chairs to be seen in the photo, but no other human soul.
Distance rules are child's play to adhere to, so the mask - especially in the fresh air - presumably superfluous.
Söder in the Corona crisis: “Today Show” comedian Köster delivers memes to photos
Söder's gastro visit will be found food for a member of the “Today Show”.
Fabian Köster commented: “Again a great picture, I have the meme again.” Quasi a small thank you to Söder for the support to get a few cheap laughs.
A little later, the Cologne comedian delivered as promised.
He garnished the new Söder photo with a tongue-in-cheek message to CDU boss Armin Laschet: "Hey Laschet come here, we're going to have Fanta-Korn drinking competitions for the chancellorship." So Köster and Söder - the balls intentionally back and forth?
In any case, a user commented under Koester's announcement: “It almost seems that he deliberately posts such good templates.
He probably also finds it funny himself. "

Söder in the Corona crisis: Köster has had the CSU boss on the kieker for a long time
Just a few days earlier, Köster had used a post including a photo of the former Union Chancellor candidate with hat, sunglasses and of course a mask in front of a snowy Alpine panorama for a James Bond comparison.
Söders Techtelmechtel with the trees of this world were not spared from Köster comments.
In the latest snapshot, however, the focus for many users was above all on Söder's face jewelry.
It says: “Alone with a mask at the table.” Another comment reads: “Drink beer with a mask.
Or is it just for the photo? ”A user jokes:“ Drink with a mask in an exemplary manner. ”And someone writes:“ You can overdo it with a mask. ”
Despite all the teasing, Söder did one thing with his photo.
The easing in Nuremberg has spread far beyond the city limits.
