It is not sensible to have an election right now.
“It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy… I love the Republic. The power you give me I will lay down when this crisis has abated. And as my first act with this new authority, I will create a Grand Army of the Republic to counter the increasing threats of the Separatists.”
Oh are they doing the “Ukrainians were the real fascists all along” propaganda bit? Pretty weak sauce when Russia is glidebombing apartments and Ukraine keeps it to military targets
The narrative these puppets use to counter that is that Ukraine is bombing itself to make Russia look bad.
I wish I was making this up.
I was just advocating for democracy in a sea of people doing the opposite.
