She made Germany the sick old economic man of Europe and the world.
No one has arguably transformed Germany more fundamentally than Angela Merkel, Germany’s first female chancellor.
Under Merkel, Germany allowed hundreds of thousands on immigrants to pour into the country, forever changing the German culture fabric. Her policies also crippled Germany’s energy supply when she decided to shut down the country’s entire fleet of nuclear power reactors and making Germany reliant of Russian natural gas and renewables. This has since led to a crippling of the German economy in the wake of the Ukraine War.
Though her policies and those of her successor government have made Germany the sick old economic man of Europe, she has become the darling of the media for it.
Since she left office in 2021, she’s written and just published her memoirs in a 736-page book titled “Freiheit”. Though it was fervently hyped and promoted by the media last month, it’s not selling well. So far reader reviews have been way short of enthusiastic. In fact, the reviews have been so flat that Welt here reports Amazon has since suspended reader reviews.
So far Freiheit, which sells for a hefty 42 euros, has only managed to get 2.4 stars. Moreover it is only no. 15 on the bestseller list.
Merkel’s book is also available in English under the title “Freedom” where at Amazon it has only gotten a measly 1.5 stars from obviously disappointed readers.
It’s a sign of the times: Trump is in, and those against him are being tuned out.
