Merkle will survive, changing party leader now would make no sense.
In the September election it was the Socialist SPD who collapsed. They usually partner Merkel in a grand coalition, but not this time. The other four minor parties who gained at the SPDs expense, have little common ground so forming a new coalition has proven impossible. But the problem isn’t with Merkel’s CDU/CSU who got the most seats by far, it is the splintered opposition who cannot agree.
And they will remain in the exact same position ...where to go from there?
The SPD stared out of the coalition to prevent the AFD becoming the official opposition

It's what happens when half your Parliamentarians are selected under a proportional representation system utilising second votes. You almost perpetually end up with a government consisting of cobbled together coalitions. Everybody gets what nobody in particular wants..

If they go into anther election with AM at the help will there be any difference? Maybe with someone else at the helm they may be able to negotiate the inevitable coalition?
It is not down to Merkel that the fringe parties can’t agree. Anyone else would have the same problem with the result last time.

Perhaps having got their protest votes of off their chests lastime, the German public might refrain from voting for extreme fringe parties, and actually elect a Government in a rerun.

Very unlikely. German voters cannot elect a government - that's up to the politicians to do in smoke filled rooms behind closed doors. Even if they do they will still end up with a coalition of at least three parties. The German constitution always results in coalitions formed by politicians interested in keeping certain factions out rather than including the ones they want.

Yes it is, they either dont agree with her disastrous policies such as immigration or they dont trust her.
