Bei der TV-Runde der vier Kanzlerkandidaten ließ Moderator Günther Jauch ein Museumsstück aus dem Bonner Haus der Geschichte fallen – den Bierdeckel, auf dem Friedrich Merz 2003 seine Einkommenssteuerreform skizziert hat. Was die Museumsleitung zu der Panne sagt.
Günther Jauch dropped a beer coaster, a museum piece from the Haus der Geschichte in Bonn, during the Quadrell debate featuring the chancellor candidates. The coaster, which had historical significance as it featured Friedrich Merz's 2003 tax reform sketches, was unharmed despite the mishap. Jauch adhered to instructions to only handle the edge of the coaster, and the museum later noted the incident brought attention to the museum and linked the coaster to the 2025 federal election campaign.
