Weidel wants Trump to be the next US president
The AfD chairwoman Alice Weidel wishes that Republican Donald Trump, not incumbent Joe Biden, wins the US presidential election in November. "I definitely support Donald Trump," Weidel said in a ZDF summer interview. Biden is "obviously not in control of his mental faculties," she added. He should therefore no longer be President. "That's not even an option."
Moreover, Trump has promised to end the war in Ukraine by withdrawing financial support for Kiev. "And I believe he will keep his word," Weidel stated in the ZDF show "Berlin direct". However, she expressed dissatisfaction with the entire US election campaign and the candidates. "The US election campaign in my opinion is a disaster," she said. "I would have preferred if perhaps completely different candidates were running."
