    It’s not a fair country, lol. But, regardless, things do work a bit differently here as people are aware of the fact he owns and controls the main news channels - folk aren’t under the illusion that they’re fair and balanced, so that metric isn’t as relevant as - say - an election in the West where people are more likely to trust their media.

    People went with him mostly because he promised stability, and the opposition don’t have a great track record with that (even though they really gave it their best this time around). A lot can also be said about Kılıçdaroğlu and his refusal to step down… But that’s a much longer discussion.
