Ok in seriousness...no, I will not take advantage of such a loophole, just trolling you a little bit. But tell me why Turks dont mass-support Erdogan and the AKP? Sincerely curious? His foreign policy seem to empower Turkey so much...what he is doing wrong domestically? Sincerely curious.

Do you even live in Turkey? maybe if he contested amongst the diaspora in Germany or France like you.

Turkey will vote him out like Istanbul and Ankara and all the other big cities did.

I would not vote for him if I was a turkish citizen so don't blame me. I'm just going by the experiences I made with Turks here. Germany has never seen such a Führerkult since 1945.

The diaspora in Germany and France is shit. Many Turks hate them. They're mostly illiterate assholes who rejoice the Turkish lira losing value so they buy property here and take a holiday with low money.

People who live abroad usually support Erdoğan. This is not a criterion.

Erdoğan sucks in surveys right now thanks to the economic crisis. If an early election happens, Erdoğan can win again, yet if elections happen in 2023 as promised, Erdoğan can not win against the youth generation who are highly opposed to him.

The minister of economy in Turkey has resigned today after the Turkish lira is devastated. Lol at the claim that the government is succesful.

Turkish people are fed up with the foreign policy. Turkey basically has no allies left, the government is pursuing a neo-ottoman agenda and driving the country into meaningless clashes that do not concern us.

No, he can't. The opposition has called for a snap election but he rejected. If he was sure he could win, he would say 'okay, I accept your challenge.'

Also the ones living in the UK and the US are well-educated and better representative, they're largely opposed to Erdogan. Turks are probably the best immigrants in the UK, we can ask British members how they meddle in with the culture and society and differ from other Muslim immigrants such as Pakistanis and Bangladeshi.

That a greek gloats about plumetting approval rates is all the evidence for me, Erdogan is doing the right things. Why else will historical enemies gloat and hope for his failure.
