News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [381]
A week has passed, I am still a bit angry that Nawrocki is our new president; mostly at Kaczyński for backing this marionette instead of a decent candidate like Jurek, Ryszka or Nowak and for Tusk for not forcing Sikorski as the democratic candidate, but it was more than that... promises broken, the same old PiS-style corruption (despite swearing that it will change), idiotic attacks at the Church. Tusk has to step aside, he f*cked up big time and now has to pay for it.
As for Nawrocki's great victory - he should thank 1 million of voters of Trzecia Droga and Lewica who stayed at home last Sunday. Their voices would give Trzaskowski a comfortable victory (he lost by 370k votes). And let's not forget those leftist 1st round voters of Senszyn (almost 20%), Zandberg, Hołownia and Biejat who voted for Nawrocki in the 2nd round. Perhaps Gajewska's antics with the bag of potatoes pissed them off? Perhaps it was the unashamed kissing the butts of real estate developers by the current government and local authorities?
Oh, well... maybe it's all for the better. Tusk and KO learnt the hard way that stupidity has its price. Maybe it will force them to change their ways. If not, f*ck 'em - it's an old cliché but it's really patria not partia that counts.
