German Chancellor Olaf Scholz under fire

Summary

66% Informative

Olaf Scholz wants to be his party's top candidate in the upcoming federal elections despite poor favorability ratings.

However, his SPD party is reportedly starting to consider other options.

His government has become the most unpopular government that has ever existed in post-war Germany .

He has had the shortest term of office of any of the four chancellors of the SPD in history.

Scholz was unable to shake off the image of the boring and fun-free bureaucrat.

He saw himself as a fact-oriented pragmatist who, rather than putting on a show, would say only as much as is absolutely necessary.

That strategy worked well for him during his time as finance minister, when he provided billions in aid to companies affected by the shutdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic.
