Kolja Barghoorn painted a confrontation between SPD Interior Minister Georg Maier and Baumann. Maier initially accused the AfD of authoritarian thinking. Baumann replied that Maier did not understand the world, as he stood at 6 percent in Thuringia. Maier then asked if that meant he had to keep his mouth shut and repeated his accusation. Later, he again suggested that Baumann was trying to silence him. Barghoorn described Maier's argumentation as a straw man: Maier had made a false claim and then argued against it. Barghoorn also wrote that he was not surprised that nothing was working in Thuringia anymore, and that those addressed and their embarrassing domestic intelligence reports were no longer taken seriously. #Thüringen #Politik #AfD (translated)
