This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

I would call Die Linke neither Marxist nor attribute their fall to Wagenknecht. Die Linke is more or less just a melting pot of various vaguely "leftist" positions, but it is not clearly marxist. I have never seen them advocate or employing Marxist analysis. There are Marxsists in Die Linke, but from my personal experiences, most of them are pretty unhappy with the party.
As for Wagenknecht, isn't she one of the most popular politicians according to polls at the moment? The downfall of Die Linke has been going on for quite some time now, and I don't think it started with Wagenknecht, nor do I really think Wagenknecht is responsible for losing votes. Die Linke has had issues gathering Working Class votes for a long time now, and I think that comes mainly from their inability to provide the working class with a proper alternative vision for the future (Socialism) as well as their constant, open infighting.
Yes, they are a "democratic socialist" party. If you read Lenin's works you know why this concept is inherently bad and just supports the ruling class in one way or another
