Nawrocki, aka the "nationalist" candidate, just won the election in Poland with a very narrow margin.
Nawrocki is formally independent, but is aligned with the PiS party of current president Duda, who were responsible for undermining Polish democracy by among other things stacking the courts with illegitimate judges. As the president has the power to block all judidcal appointments, it does not look like Poland will have their democracy back for the next five years: Duda has simply blocked all judicial appointments rendering the Polish state a lame duck, and in all likelihood Nawrocki will keep up the same obstructionist strategy.
Then again, that's what they voted for.
I mean Brexit was voted on back in 2016, and despite vocal opposition online, not much was actually done to try and stop it.
You're right. That sounds pretty much like the Dem voter base today. Complacency in a perceived landslide victory tends to lead people to sit at home.
