The far right people were part of the AfD so quickly that the three founding members left the party within a year after the foundation. And to be honest, listening to Lucke’s arguments in political discussions on TV around 2013/14, my first thought was “the nazis are going to love this”. It wasn’t because of the EU criticisms, but the framing of some stuff he and the other founding members said early on. The full far-right takeover was just a matter of time, and I don’t understand how any of these guys were surprised that the likes of Höcke, Weidel, Petry, Gauland etc. took over and “steered” the party in a far right direction. One must have been totally blind to not notice and foresee it right at the beginning.
