Brandenburg was part of the SED, she lives of the "she'S one of us" effect, and she lives of people's short memory. She sings the pro-Russian anti-Ukraine tune and serves to the arch-German desire for world peace from just meaning things well, and moral justice seen through red glasses. That both would be under Russian bajonetts she does not say, and people are too busy with their everyday needs, energy costs, and mass migration as if they would care. Germany is not really united, the trenches between West and East in fact beocme deeper and wider. You cannot simply reverse the economic effects and sociologica effects from half a century of system-depending different socialisation. There are significant differences in Wetsenr and Eastern mentality (in lack of a b etter word). Wagenknecht is a populist par excellence. Intelligent, but vain, and in the core of her self still Stalinist and very russophile (like many Eastgermans are, the vast majority in the East is pro-Russia, and the national population East plus West also is against Ukriane and pro Russia, in the West the dominance of the pro-Russians is just not that big like in the East).

And like Stalinism sees a revival in Russia since Putler came to power, we see a blossoming of GDR nostalghia in Eastgermany.
