I'm pretty certain the Republican Party would win again (unless Kukurikacija pulls off another upset), and then who’s going to stand up to them? Veterans? The church? The nationalists? God forbid we accidentally trigger a backlash. ☕ The Republican Party can pick a fight with everyone for fifteen years straight, and you won't see any of that right-wing terror we deal with today under the guise of "family values" or cultural identity.
Bottom line: I wouldn't waste a dime on an election just to put that version of the Republican Party back in charge and watch Tomislav Karamarko serve as Prime Minister for four years.
Well, this group will finish their term too, but I'm just saying that doesn't stop the Republican Party from getting back in. In the U.S., if things keep going this way, you always find yourself voting against whoever is currently in office, at least until politics becomes a bit more civilized.
There was just as much pressure on the Republican Party before, think about the labor strikes, the daily protests, even people gathering outside the leader's house. The difference is, they weren't quite as intentional about provoking public fury by constantly digging into issues that everyone knows are just distractions—like those specific controversial figures or culture war flashpoints.
At the end of the day, both sides can be terrible, but this current administration is incredibly heavy-handed when it comes to trying to force public opinion.
