Tomasz Szmydt: I do not believe that Braun will win the presidential election in Poland

7 May 2025 22:33

What is his goal and what does he pursue? Braun is known in Poland for his radical right-wing views, his rejection of Brussels, and various types of unorthodox behaviour.

The Polish press made headlines: another scandal involving Grzegorz Braun. The presidential candidate tore down the EU flag, then wiped his shoes on it. In the end, he burned it in front of a monument at the Wujek mine.

The video shows Braun tearing down the flag. Moments later he wants to leave the building with it. When ministry officials asked him to leave the flag, he responded, ‘Child, feel sorry for yourself. How are you not ashamed of yourself? People – fear God.’ At one point, Braun throws the flag to the ground.

‘There is no such thing. There is no such state. Thank God there is no such state yet, so we are not going to display in Poland, in the Polish ministry, emblems of organisations hostile to us, which, thank God, have no state status. Such emblems have no legal protection in Poland,’ the presidential candidate said.

On the same day, the European Parliament lifted Grzegorz Braun’s immunity. This relates to an investigation into Braun’s extinguishing of Hanukkah candles in the Sejm. The investigation is being conducted by the Warsaw District Prosecutor’s Office due to the fact that in December 2023, Braun extinguished Hanukkah candles with a fire extinguisher during a ceremony in the Sejm.

On the other hand, a few days earlier, Braun participated in the removal of the Ukrainian flag from the Biala Podlaska town hall, which was hanging next to the Polish flag. One might ask, is Braun not crazy? No, dear reader, he is a very intelligent man, and I do not believe that he has no purpose in these provocations.

Braun realises that Poland is gradually coming to the end of the peculiar dual power of politicians from Law and Justice and Civic Platform, ruling alternately for 30 years. Globally, today in the Western world we live in a completely abnormal situation where ideas that are completely contrary to traditional values, morality and simple reason are being promoted. The madness of Brussels and a number of politicians associated with it has already accelerated, and this is due to a sense of weakness on the part of those in charge.

It has to do with the fact that people are waking up.

More so in the United States, but it’s also starting to happen in some European countries. We are seeing a change of mood in German society, where the growing popularity of Alternative for Germany has brought it under special surveillance by German counterintelligence (BfV). The situation in Romania, where the first round of the presidential election was cancelled on trumped-up charges because it was won by a candidate who did not please Brussels and the then Biden administration.

In Poland, too, society is beginning to look for new political role models. Slowly but surely this process is underway.

The word ‘crisis’ is used more and more often in Poland. It can be felt in the deterioration of material conditions, high prices and the rising cost of living. But this is only the main aspect, the current crisis is unprecedented and incomparable to anything that has happened before in the history of the European Union.

The ability to manage the economy by printing money without cover (hollow money) is coming to an end, Western European countries are rapidly losing their indigenous population, which is being replaced by immigrants. The European Union is becoming less and less competitive due to high production costs and a series of absurd regulations.

Grzegorz Braun sees all this and speaks about it. He is also drawing attention to these problems in a radical way. He sees that something is coming to an end, but he also sees that something is beginning.

I don’t believe that Braun will win the presidential election in Poland, this is not the moment. Grzegorz Braun may get 3 to 5% of the vote in the presidential election, but this is just the beginning. The main thing is that Grzegorz Braun has the opportunity to initiate a completely new political process. A political process whose goal is not to vassalise Poland to Brussels or the United States, but to pursue a balanced policy both in the West and in the East.
