Law and Justice greatly missed Andrzej Duda in the nomination process and in the process of searching for a candidate for president – said TVN24 journalist Konrad Piasecki in the “W Kuluarach” program. Agata Adamek heard from her sources that “the president is disgusted.”

For a week we have known the names of the presidential candidates from the two largest political groups in Poland – the Civic Coalition, which nominated the mayor of Warsaw, the deputy head of PO Rafał Trzaskowski and Law and Justice, whose candidate is the president Institute of National Remembrance Karol Nawrocki. The last week was marked by election meetings, although the campaign has not officially started yet.

President Andrzej Duda forgot the name of the PiS candidate for presidentTVN24

According to Agata Adamek, “the question arises whether it is Andrzej Duda's acting talent” or “Andrzej Duda really did not remember his name.” – From what I heard from the president's entourage – and from Law and Justice politicians there are also such voices – this name really slipped his mind – she said.

– Another issue, of course, is what will happen with the president's relationship Andrzej Duda to Karol Nawrocki and in general to the presidential campaign, where Andrzej Duda will position himself in this campaign – she said.

– I am receiving signals from the Presidential Palace that the president is disgusted that he was not even asked about what happened next with the presidential elections. He feels like a politician who has accomplished a task that seemed impossible when he ran for president. He had an idea for his campaign, we remember what he had polls at the beginning of this campaign when he won for the first time. And now he hasn't even been asked for his opinion, she continued.

According to her, “there are also voices from the Presidential Palace and from the president himself that (Sławomir) Mentzen is actually quite an interesting candidate.” – I heard a voice that it may end with Andrzej Duda simply not supporting anyone in these presidential elections – she added.

“PiS missed the president a lot”

Konrad Piasecki agreed that “it can be said without any doubt that Law and Justice largely ignored the president in the nomination process and in the process of searching for a candidate.”

– Which is strange because if any politician from the Law and Justice camp has good polls today, it is Andrzej Duda. Therefore, he, as the outgoing president, leaving the political scene, would have full papers to anoint his successor. Meanwhile Law and Justice it didn't even ask the president for his opinion on Karol Nawrocki or any other candidate, he noted.

As the journalist said, the message coming from the president's environment “does not sound like full-scale support for Karol Nawrocki and his presidential ambitions today.”

“The president may not buy it this time.”

– However, the attitude of the president's office is somewhat unprecedented – commented Radomir Wit. He pointed out that “we hear in Law and Justice that it may be necessary to make some gesture towards the president.” – Only this is not the first story in the series: the president sent signals that he was dissatisfied, that he was excluded from the decision-making chain and omitted, and Law and Justice later tries to make some gesture to make up for it – he said.

In his opinion, “this time the president may not buy it, that is, it will not impress him.”

He also said that the question remains whether the president sees “space for a new project” on the right-wing part of the political scene. – Or maybe, for example, the candidate's failure Jarosław Kaczyński it would open up space for building a completely new right-wing force on this side of the political scene – wondered Wit.
