CSU boss Markus Söder praises the appearance of Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet (CDU) at the Triell of Chancellor Candidates.

Twitter users doubt the statement.

Berlin - "A strong performance and clear victory by Armin Laschet," said CSU boss Markus Söder on Twitter about the triumph of the Chancellor candidates for the 2021 federal election on Sunday evening.

Not exactly a cheer - which could presumably also have something to do with the fact that Laschet's appearance was not regarded by many viewers as either “strong” or a “clear victory”.

Söder is promptly ridiculed - and he is not alone in this.

"Mr. Söder, is that this sentence that is supposed to tell us that you have been kidnapped," jokes one commentator.

"Your ironic teasing against your own candidate for chancellor is slowly really getting out of hand", comedian Fabian Köster questions the credibility of the Söder statement in his usual satire, who would have liked to run as the Union's candidate for chancellor himself.

Many users ask themselves under the tweet what is really going on in the Bavarian Prime Minister and do not take Söder's words of praise on the triad between Armin Laschet (CDU), Annalena Baerbock (Greens) and Olaf Scholz (SPD) very seriously.

Söder praises Laschet's Triell appearance - and is promptly ridiculed

“I appreciate you very much, Mr. Söder, for what you are doing in Bavaria.

But that statement is another own goal especially for any young voter.

You should have just done it, "commented a fan below the tweet.

Others mock, however, that Söder had not seen the program at all: "Was with Ludwig in the beer tent before, or saw another program?"

Söder is not alone with the Laschet defense after the Triell.

Among other things, Laschet Friedrich Merz (CDU) rushes to the side.

And in his tweet you can read a little more energy than in Söder's statement, which seems a bit dutiful: “Armin Laschet is really good tonight.

This is how the election campaign will be decided for the Union in the final phase. "

After the triumph: Söder and Merz celebrate Laschet as the winner - Twitter users doubt their accountability

“Absolutely RIGHT,” scoffs a reader: “So it is decided today that the Union is the strongest force in the opposition.” The opinion of the critics is supported not least by the lightning poll on the Chancellor's triumph, which was carried out directly after the Triell was performed with spectators.

The SPD chancellor candidate Olaf Scholz emerged as the winner of the Triell, Annalena Baerbock follows in second place - Armin Laschet can only take third and last place.

"At which shooting festival in the Sauerland was Friedrich today and then lolled around in front of the television, soldered up with corn?"

Olaf Scholz is the winner of the election triumph.

This resulted in a lightning forsa commissioned by @RTLde & @ntvde.

When asked "Who, all things considered, won the TV debate?"

36% answered O. Scholz, 30% A. Baerbock and 25% A. Laschet.

Laschet was not only unable to convince many viewers in the discussion itself - he also caused a stir with his unsuccessful closing remarks.

If Laschet does not personally give his promise of “stability” more credibility, something strange could happen: The political mistakes of the Merkel era (late decisions and lack of concepts, for example) threaten to stick to him - if this effect solidifies, then it stands Union before the long unthinkable: Going into the opposition, comments
