All these sudden silly show of concern cos they’re finally scared it might not be business as usual because of this 3rd force? Why all these and various explanations, interviews, visitations and trying so hard keeping up appearances if you certain you did your jobs before now? Even the one who confidently turned down a debate now everywhere with so many shalayes.”
