So you're saying the election he's in hasn't even happened, but a bigger election DID happen, but a bigger election his party lost. So this is more like a preemptive surprise election?
I don't support the far right, but I also don't support these tactics. I'm sure if I looked into it I'd find tactics I don't support on the far right. But you can't lower yourself to that level if you're trying to shield your people from those types of tactics.
You can't be the savior of the people by being the poster boy of what the people are afraid of.
