peter boehringer in munich, welcome to hardtalk. good afternoon, stephen. good to hear you again. well, it s great to have you on the show. and i dare say you are delighted to look at german national opinion polls which put your afd party at 20% plus in terms of public support. but you know as well as i do that federal elections don t come until 2025. how sure are you that you and the party can keep this level of support up? well, you can never be100% sure here, especially mid term. the opposition usually is better off because at the end of the terms, the coalition parties, the government do things that please the people, so that might be difficult. and in afd s case, they usually do a lot of things defaming us. so we re expecting something. on the other hand, well, if they continue governing like this, we shouldn t go down in the polls. the problem is it looks like it s mostly a negative vote. germans, according to the polls, are deeply dissatisfied both with the state of th

did someone tamper with the tapes? plus, senator manchin on the debt ceiling, biden s re-election. that interview is coming up. who was behind the drones the kremlin say were sent to kill putin? let s go outfront. good evening. i m pamela brown in for erin burnett. breaking news, tapes at mar-a-lago. special counsel jack smith is now asking questions about the handling of surveillance tapes from trump s home in florida. whether the tapes could have been tampered with. smith of course is leading the criminal investigation into trump s handling of classified documents. they want to hear from one or two executives. they re said to know a lot about mar-a-lago s inner workings. trump went on fox news to boasts about the tapes he handed over to prosecutors. they raided mar-a-lago. vicious ly raided mar-a-lago. i have tape, i gave them tapes. i gave it to them. i could have held that back. i gave them tape. but you know the tape they don t want me to reveal, if possible,
