Considering Linke+AfD have a majority and even Red-Red-Green won't be able to save this, what happens next? The only options I can find are Linke-CDU; Linke-SPD-Green-FDP and AfD-CDU-FDP.
None of which seems particularly good to me. Honestly I kind of hope for the last one in order to have clearly drawn left vs right lines, but I would be ok with the 4 party coalition as well (and if I lived in Thuringia I would hope for that one).
Linke-CDU is the one I am afraid of. If CDU starts doing deals with borderline commies (not that I have a problem with Linke, but I imagine a lot of German conservatives do) the German moderate right is dead. Which means a lot of moderate conservatives will start voting AfD, which is a very, very bad thing.
They still have the FDP in the moderate right
