元市長「画期的な手法は地球を救う話」

都知事選が終わって１週間が経った。次点で落選した元市長をテレビで観ない日はなかった。無党派層の取り込みやクラファンで３億を集めたとか。老害議員にはできないやり方だった。
A week has passed since Tokyo Governor’s Election ended, which over 60 percent of voters joined.
We didn’t spend one day without watching an ex-mayor candidate on TV program, which reported that he could attracted numerous independent voters or he collected a large amount of money with a crowdfunding system.
A senior harmful congressman could never have done.

画期的な手法で選挙を闘ったというのもあるが、広島１区に出馬すると宣言したのも老害議員を恐怖に陥れたのだろう。ソーシャルメディアを利用した彼へのバッシングが物語っている。
He conducted his election campaign with epochal measures, and he declared that he would be a candidate in the first district of Hiroshima, from which the current prime minister became the Diet member in 1993.
These utterances of his brought several senior harmful congressmen into the most serious and critical situation.
After that, numerous bashings against him started with social media, which is responsible for the cowards.

現首相は広島１区から国政にでている。彼が出馬したら現首相の地位は危うい。敏感に察知したのが地盤の支持者たちだ。元市長の画期的な戦略に負ける可能性が高いことを知っている。
The current prime minister’s electoral power base is the first district of Hiroshima, so his supporters are afraid that the ex-mayor candidate would run for there.
The current prime minister is likely to be eliminated from the Diet, which a large number of local supporters were conscious of sensitively because the ex-mayor’s passion and enthusiasm about Japan’s politics exploded.
At the same time, the current prime minister has been criticized for his unclear and indecisive explanations or statements about numerous secret money or kickbacks of the government party since the end of 2023.

ソーシャルメディアを利用した彼へのバッシングは目に余るものがあった。例えば典型的なパワハラ上司だとか。税金の無駄遣いをしている既存政党のあり方を批判したらそうなるのだ。
Numerous bashings against the ex-mayor with the social media seemed extremely terrible and unforgivable.
One proper example is that he is a typical supervisor with powerful harassments, which isn’t a truth.
He was criticized more than required because he was against the existing political parties for their unfair use of ordinary citizens’ bloody tax.

いびきをかいて寝ている議員を叱った時の話。叱られた議員が恫喝されたと裁判沙汰にした。市民をなめてましたと認めれば良いだけなのだ。そして後輩に道を譲れば良いだけなのだ。
He scolded a sleeping congressman with a loud snore during the vital conference, but such a guy couldn’t reflect on himself, instead he claimed it in the court for being threatened by the ex-mayor.
This senior guy should have admitted that he wasn’t considerate for the public people or ordinary citizens.
And he should have been replaced with young capable candidate in the election, we must remember.
