One gets the impression that Donald Tusk’s party not only fails to learn from defeats but also takes offense at those who point them out. But pretending that nothing happened is impossible, even if it's a hymn for some Poles after a lost match. This match could have been won. Here are ten key reasons why Rafał Trzaskowski lost elections that were winnable.” -- AN EFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT WOULD NOT HAVE BURDENED TRZASKOWSKI - NIZINKIEWICZ CONTINUES: “Candidate Trzaskowski should have resigned his party membership and not vouched for the government's decisions. An effective government would not have burdened Trzaskowski. And Civic Coalition couldn't even deliver on their 100 promises for 100 days in office, which they themselves announced. In public media, there was supposed to be change, not a reversal.” -- IF TUSK DOESN'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY HIMSELF BUT BLAMES RAFAŁ TRZASKOWSKI, THEN IN 2027 HE SHOULD NOT ONLY PREPARE FOR ANOTHER DEFEAT BUT ALSO FOR A CHANGE OF RESIDENCE - NIZINKIEWICZ'S CONCLUSION IN RZ: “There are more reasons for the defeat. If Donald Tusk doesn't take responsibility himself but blames Rafał Trzaskowski, then in 2027 he should not only prepare for another defeat but also for a change of residence. The return of Jarosław Kaczyński to power is a promise of oblivion for Tusk and some of his government. This time, Zbigniew Ziobro might not be so magnanimous.” https://www.rp.pl/publicystyka/art42439781-jacek-nizinkiewicz-dziesiec-powodow-dla-ktorych-przegral-trzaskowski-to-wina-tuska -- POLES CANNOT STAND PEOPLE WHO MOCK THEM AND TRY TO ARRANGE THEIR LIVES FOR THEM. IN THIS CONTEXT, ALL THOSE MEMBERS OF THE "WARSAW ELITES" WHO PUBLICLY SAID THAT IN THE FIRST ROUND OF ELECTIONS TRZASKOWSKI WAS SUPPORTED BY THE "SMART" AND NOW THE "BACKWOODS" NEED TO BE CONVINCED OF HIM – ONET ON VOICES WITHIN PO: “We must finally stop the Civic Platform positioning itself as the 'wise teacher' who tells Poles they should become more enlightened, well-read, European – believes a Civic Coalition activist from Silesia. – Poles cannot stand people who mock them and try to arrange their lives for them. In this context, all those members of the 'Warsaw elites' who publicly said that in the first round of elections Trzaskowski was supported by the 'smart' and now the 'backwoods' need to be convinced of him – have certainly contributed to Trzaskowski's defeat. Well... we didn't convince those 'backwoods' but only angered them and mobilized them to go to the polls and vote against us.” https://www.onet.pl/informacje/onetwiadomosci/wyborcza-porazka-zatrzesla-koalicja-obywatelska-wiemy-co-mowia-dzialacze/y6n3ecp,79cfc278 -- KAROL NAWROCKI HAD NO RIGHT TO WIN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

WHAT WENT WRONG? - KRYSTYNA NASZKOWSKA IN GW: “there is a productive group. It's about 400,000 village residents who cultivate land, raise cows or pigs, sell their products, and supply the rest of society with food. They used to vote for the Polish People's Party, and then they switched to PiS. This group seemed relatively easy to win over by the liberal camp. Farmers themselves told me that it would be easy to win them over. But after a year and a half of the '15th of October' government, it is precisely they who are today the most discouraged, disappointed, and rebellious towards the ruling party. As Professor Andrzej Kowalski, former long-time head of the Institute of Agricultural Economics, says, Rafał Trzaskowski had no chance in the countryside because the government that supported him offered nothing to the countryside.” https://wyborcza.pl/magazyn/7,124059,31992512,trzaskowski-mogl-latwo-dostac-glosy-400-tysiecy-mieszkancow.html -- HE PREDICTED THE ELECTION RESULT.
