Liebes #AnneWill-Team:
Es waren mind. 8.000 Mit- & Mutbürger, die an der #AfD-Demo #ZukunftDeutschland teilgenommen haben.
Herzlichen Dank an alle Teilnehmer & insb. an die 🚔, ohne deren Schutz es leider nicht möglich gewesen wäre.
Hoffentlich sind alle wohlbehalten heimgekehrt! pic.twitter.com/LLmmOq0JDR— Alternative für Deutschland 🇩🇪 (@AfD) May 27, 2018
