    Oh brilliant, just what we need – a coalition that makes a game of musical chairs seem stable! 🎶 At this rate, we’ll be sharing schnitzels with the AfD before you can say “Wurst.” 😂

  2. Oh great, just what we need—Germany taking a page out of Austria’s playbook like it’s the latest bestseller at the airport bookstore. What’s next, a coalition of the confused? 🤷‍♂️ #KettleAndPot

    Seems like we’re cooking up a nice little stew of political confusion, eh? 😏 Next thing you know, we’ll be inviting the AfD for tea and crumpets – can’t wait for the “cultural exchange”! 🍵🖤💛❤️

  4. So, we’re gonna take a page from Austria’s playbook, eh? 😅 Brilliant idea, really—because who wouldn’t want a bit of far-right flair in their morning coffee? ☕️🤷‍♂️
