Historical election memes: a trip down memory lane

[Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC]

Q. What do you call a Talossan politician who makes a habit of telling inflammatory falsehoods about his political opposition; recruits inactive citizens on the basis of those falsehoods; and then when this upsets people, lectures his opponents about "angry fights" and "the politics of hatred"?

A. If there's not a big turnaround in the election, you'll call him Seneschal.

Baron Davinescu keeps doing this because it works politically. If you wrap serious accusations of corruption and criminality in polite language, then you look like the good guy when your opponents get mad (for those who weren't paying attention). Ironic, because he recognizes the routine of victim-blaming ("my behaviour is not the problem, but your reaction is") when the Sex Pest party leader does it.

Anyway, ere are some historical memes of previous elections where Baron Davinescu he did exactly the same thing; found these when looking for something else.
