Almost all European leaders preferred Kamala Harris's victory and expressed it in various ways”. https://www.rp.pl/polityka/art41416531-wegry-nie-lubily-unii-teraz-unia-musi-polubic-wegry -- THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SERVES THE PEOPLE TODAY: IT IS THEREFORE A RATIONAL DECISION BY ORDINARY AMERICANS - ESTERA FLIEGER IN RZ: “Both Republicans and Democrats believe there is a problem with democracy, but Trump's voters decided they would defend it by voting for him. Contrary to predictions, it was centrist voters, as well as Latinos, who voted for Trump. And there is nothing left to do but respect their choice. The Republican Party serves the people today: it is therefore a rational decision by ordinary Americans”. -- TRUMP'S OR RIGHT-WING VOTERS HAVE THEIR OWN NEEDS AND FEARS WHICH THEY EXPRESS STANDING AT THE POLLING STATION. IT'S THAT SIMPLE. AND IT'S NOT QUANTUM PHYSICS, BUT DEMOCRACY - FLIEGER AGAIN IN RZ: “I consider the biggest mistake of liberals in Poland to be that in their view, PiS is not a party of democratic debate. For years, they couldn't come to terms with defeat, cursing the people, which they continue to do to this day. When will this word finally stop being uttered with contempt? Trump's or right-wing voters have their own needs and fears which they express standing at the polling station. It's that simple. And it's not quantum physics, but democracy”. https://www.rp.pl/opinie-polityczno-spoleczne/art41416251-estera-flieger-dlaczego-obudzilam-sie-na-maga-kacu-i-to-zwykli-amerykanie-mieli-racje-nie-ja -- IT IS SIKORSKI, WHO HAS BEEN TOURING POLAND, WHO HAS TAKEN TRZASKOWSKI ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, WHICH PART OF HIS POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT. THEY SAY IT RUINS THE POLITICAL STRATEGY - IWONA SZPALA AND AGNIESZKA KUBLIK IN GW: “Rafał Trzaskowski's supporters have been repeating from the start that the decision, although not officially confirmed, has already been made, and Trzaskowski will get the nomination. Sikorski's supporters are whispering that he is fighting. It's Sikorski, who has been touring Poland, who has taken Trzaskowski on the campaign trail, which part of his political environment is not happy about. They say it ruins the political strategy, where everything had its time. And it's not just about the meetings themselves, but about drawing Trzaskowski into political debate, which he has consistently avoided”. -- LET THE BOYS FIGHT – SAYS ONE OF THE PO MPs. – WE ARE BENEFITING FROM IT, WE ARE GRABBING NEW SPACE. WE ARE STARTING TO FISH IN THE CENTER-RIGHT – SAYS ONE OF THE PO MPS – FURTHER IN SZPALA AND KUBLIK IN GW: “- Let the boys fight – says one of the PO MPs. – We are benefiting from it, we are grabbing new space. We are starting to fish in the center-right. This is necessary to win against the PiS candidate. We need to prepare for a dark scenario where Kaczyński fields Przemysław Czarnek. And it will be a massacre – notes our interlocutor. And as a supporter of Sikorski, he assures that he would cope better with such an opponent”. https://wyborcza.pl/7,75398,31447554,ameryka-wybrala-trumpa-kogo-wystawi-platforma-w-sobote-zarzad.html -- IN REALITY, HOWEVER, TRUMP'S VICTORY REDUCES SIKORSKI'S CHANCES, BECAUSE HIS WIFE, ANNE APPLEBAUM, HAS BEEN STRONGLY ATTACKING HARRIS'S RIVAL LATELY, COMPARING HIM TO HITLER AND STALIN - PIOTR ŚMIŁOWICZ IN GAZETA.PL: “In reality, however, Trump's victory reduces Sikorski's chances, because his wife, Anne Applebaum, is not only strongly associated with the American Democratic Party, but also recently strongly attacked Harris's rival, comparing him to Hitler and Stalin. This has likely been remembered in Trump's circle. Moreover, as one can hear completely 'off the record' in KO, Applebaum's background is not a good recommendation in our society”. -- THE CANDIDACY OF SIKORSKI WAS PUT FORWARD BY TUSK HIMSELF, WHO WANTED, FIRSTLY, TO FORCE RAFAŁ TO MAKE AN EFFORT, AND SECONDLY, HE DID IT AT A TIME WHEN HE HIMSELF DID NOT RULE OUT RUNNING - A PO POLITICIAN FURTHER IN ŚMIŁOWICZ IN GAZETA.PL: “- Donald Tusk himself is behind putting forward Sikorski's candidacy, who wanted, first, to force Rafał to make an effort, and second, he did it at a time when he himself did not rule out running. He therefore assumed that in the dilemma of Trzaskowski or Sikorski, he himself would turn out to be the one who would reconcile them – says a PO politician”. https://wiadomosci.gazeta.pl/wiadomosci/7,114884,31447061,wiemy-kto-stoi-za-kandydatura-sikorskiego-i-dlaczego-pojawila.html -- "NOW IS THE TIME FOR BEHIND-THE-SCENES POLITICS."

In contrast, Dr. Wojciech Karczewski received the maximum 30 points for knowledge of NAWA issues from the same member.
