The table of 6 was flawed from the beginning. İyi Parti was the best thing that happened to it. But it was always apparent that Deva and Gelecek would side with Kilicdaroglu.
Most people were hoping that Akşener's influence would not allow this to happen.
There is 3 scenarios now:
- KK stays as the candidate and the RTE wins once again
- They backpedal and end up choosing Yavaş instead and most likely win
- İyi Parti forms an alliance with ZP and MP with Muharrem İnce as the most likely candidate... This could go either way. This new alliance could work in conjunction with the other alliance.
In my opinion this is pure sabotage. No one in their right mind would pick KK as the candidate.
Simply because no one is going to take responsibility. It was quite clear that KK would become the candidate
Ppl here thinks that as long as Erdogan is gone everything in Turkey will be solved. Hell No! Whoever will rule after Erdogan will face plethora of problems such as Syria, Libya, Egypt, Mavi Vatan, Economy, Justice department, Presidential vs Parliamentary system, and a divided nation
Whoever will come after Erdogan will be under extreme scrutiny and any small mistake will not only screw his career but also throw bpth him and his party into oblivion
That is why neither Imamoglu or Kilicdaroglu want to be the president; hey know very well that any screw up will destroy all the reputation they have. As for the iYi, their strategist is a filthy cunning fox, as their main aim is to become the new AKP by slowly gathering votes behind the scenes! They will never allow themselves to be the new leaders after Erdogan but want to remain close to the new leaders whoever they are so that they can slowly gather votes until the new leaders screw up and they can take over from there!
@dBSPL I think this is a more logical reason
for the recent iYi action since if they just wanted to hog all the fame, they would have phrased the reason for why they left the table of the 6 differently. With their current statements, they are trying to put pressure on Imamoglu and Yavas to take the helm and the hit after Erdogan while the iYi controls from behind
