Indeed. I see a lot of politicians running early smear tactics because they pride themselves on being winners, and they try to set up the narrative in advanced that should they be declared a loser in a massively public showing, it's everyone's fault but theirs.
Trump did it (turned out he didn't need to of course)
French and Australian politicians are doing it now.
I say the same thing I said about the Trump win, if people are stupid enough to swallow this kind of nonsense and forget that they're listening to politics where everything anyone says is almost by definition a lie, then they deserve all that they get.
