The chancellor is now aware of the “web of vivid imagination and half-truths” that is closing in on him. His moods fluctuate. Dark forebodings, depression, and even suicidal thoughts alternate abruptly with confidence and a fighting spirit. Can he go on the offensive with a cabinet reshuffle? Genscher will not step down voluntarily, and Brandt cannot force him to do so, as that would jeopardize the governing coalition with the FDP. As Vice Chancellor and FDP chairman, Genscher is the designated successor to Walter Scheel, who is determined to have himself elected Federal President in just a few weeks.
