RIP Austria (OVP), long time ago. RIP France (soon, NF - Le Pen). RIP Germany (soon AfD). RIP Holland (soon Vilgers), RIp Russia, RIP Hungary. In similar lines - Maybe RIP USA too. (Trump).

I know this is the line being hyped by anglophone newspapers, so I don't blame you for believing it, but we're talking about a party which has peaked at around 12% in national polls. Every single other notable party despises the AfD and is completely unwilling to consider a coalition with them.
It would take a small miracle to dislodge the current CDU/CSU/SPD grand coalition at all (about 66% combined), and the only remotely plausible alternative would be a shift to the left with SPD/Greens/Left. Nobody is talking about the AfD.
He would rank so left on the US spectrum of politics, Bernie Sanders would call him "a fucking commie".
Just sayin'.
I'd say more RIP USA than RIP <western european government> for now.
Hey, you wanna make a bet on that? I'd love to win easy money from gullible people. The only way Le Pen wins is if she gets an absolute majority in the first round.
She doesn't win the second round. She doesn't win the legislatives. The National Front is nothing.
