After the November revolution of 1918, Aßner worked as a skirmisher of Kurt Eisner.

Later Aßner changed from the Communists to the National Socialists, where he acted as radical "Pfaffenhetzer". In 1924, he was elected to the Bavarian Landtag as a candidate for the Volkischer Block. However, he resumed his mandate on 5 June 1924. Since Aßner was sentenced to four months' imprisonment shortly before the election, he could never exercise his mandate. Aßner's list had been struck by the violent protest of Adolf Hitler, who was also imprisoned at the time. His successor in parliament was Xaver Hirschauer.

In 1933, Aßner fell once more when the Bavarian Legation in Berlin reported that he had pronounced a curious murder threat against Hitler, who had just been appointed Reichskanzler, on the grounds that Hitler was a completely madman, which drove the country into misery which he, Aßner, would prevent by his deed. The threat was, however, dismissed as unfounded when Aßner declared his willingness to give up his plans against the payment of a very large sum of money.
