As to be expected. Thanks to the backstabbing FDP. I hope they vanish.

They will come back. As they do every time. Just wait one or two election periods, then they'll be back under new leadership, with yet another flashy advertising campaign targeting dumb first time voters, who will, once more, fall for that trick.
The FDP desn't need many members nor many voters to maintain its financing, they get plenty of
donationsbribes in return for their services to the ultra rich. They can and will manage a few years with bad election results.

I think the no-confidence vote to make way for new elections isn't the bad part here. The bad part is this insane idea, that he can be successful again, after having had to end his government prematurely.
The SPD already tried that move with Schröder. We got 16 years of Merkel out of it... And if the SPD would be anywhere close to the results Schröder achieved back then, they would party for three days straight.

That, too.
They aren't only blatantly lying, they are stupid enough to believe their own lies.
On the other hand, I'm not that sad about the SPD's demise. Since Schröder turned them into a CDU in red, they are redundant. The problem is that nothing filled the giant void that the SPD's reinvention as just another neoliberal party has left.

What are you guys talking about? "His own paty" could be interpreted as members from the SPD, and they did in majority vote for trust. https://www.bundestag.de/parlament/plenum/abstimmung/abstimmung?id=938

He asked his own people to vote this way to force new elections

What are his own people? Party members? They voted for trust. https://www.bundestag.de/parlament/plenum/abstimmung/abstimmung?id=938
Seriously, do you people even look for sources before making any claims?
-
And not a single one listend?

Yes, this is still massively dishonest, as the mechanism isn't meant for willy-nilly forcing new elections just because the guy in front wants it so.
