The president of Law and Justice is not the coach of Barcelona, who can prepare three of his own for our variant. He probably already has a presidential candidate in mind. I think that only one thing really started to count – said Tomasz Siemoniak, Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration on TVN24.

Siemoniak: I think that only one candidate started to matter in PiS
In Tuesday's edition of “Fakty po Faktach” on TVN24, the Minister of Interior and Administration addressed this issue Tomasz Siemoniakcoordinator of special services.
– The PiS president has a problem because he led the party to a point where what really mattered was colorlessness and loyalty to the president, not personality. And the presidential election is a choice of personality, he said.
The TVN24 guest was asked whether he thought the PiS president was waiting for the Civic Coalition's decision regarding its candidate. – Certainly yes, although I think that the president here is not the coach of Barcelona, who can prepare about three of his own for this variant. The president probably already has this candidate in mind. I think only one thing really started to matter. I think this is you Przemysław Czarnek – he said.
– At least he is known, he was the Minister of Education, his record was terrible, but everyone knows him. I don't think even PiS voters are particularly familiar with the rest. I don't think it's possible to turn someone, like the president of the Institute of National Remembrance or a former voivode, into a candidate for president, he said.

– I think it will be Przemysław Czarnek, even though the old PiS, the order around the president, is probably not enthusiastic about this candidacy – Siemoniak continued. He added that in his opinion, the PiS politician “has no inhibitions in saying various things, he is efficient and well-known.”
He repeated that “the presidential candidate must be known.” – Perhaps the American example encourages someone who has a certain amount of authenticity in himself – he added.
