Whether you like it or not, but this is politics

The modern political campaign is a game, whether we like it or not, it is a real reality.

In the face of the struggle for power, the candidates have resorted to all possible means, using all means, overtly, secretly, funds, and propaganda. Everything is to ascend to the throne of power.

Election is a Game of Thrones. It is a game to compete resources, money, and bottom line.

At this time, they are both politicians and conspirators-it’s a pity that the citizens who voted don’t know the kind of people who are running for the election, because the people who run for the election always keep in front of them “serving the people”. "", "Dedicated to the end of life" posture. Whether listening to the candidates' speeches on the spot or watching their debates in front of the TV, their generous statements always give supporters the illusion that he is desperately fighting for your benefit.

Unfortunately, the illusion is always just an illusion, and there will always be the moment when you wake up and realize that the realization is cruel.

So, those candidates may be politicians or conspirators. But whether they belong to the former or the latter, he is a good man in front of the citizens before they get the vote and the power. And after that? God knows, let it be fate.

The campaign story in this film takes place in Bolivia, a small South American country.

When it was interesting, the presidential candidate of Bolivia chose a group of Americans as his campaign team. Between the two candidate teams, various battles of wit and courage began, as well as the bottom line competition.

The Chinese name of the film is "Crisis Counterattack", which corresponds to the candidate helped by the heroine, who was also the former president. She fell behind by more than 20% and finally won the presidency by counterattack.

In this presidential campaign, the heroine has only one concept, and that is to win. In order to win the election, there is no shame in any way, because only losing the election is shameful.

The result, of course, is that the heroine’s camp won the final victory—under the heroine’s small tricks, she helped the former president to regain the highest power with a small advantage.

But the reality is that no matter who the candidate wins, the current people are losers.

All the promises made before the vote are just for the vote. After that, the promise is after all just a promise.

After becoming president and gaining power, he ignored what the people wanted, and no one cared what they had promised. If the people are dissatisfied, they will use the power they have gained to suppress it.

This is another reincarnation, repeated again and again. Nothing has changed.

Whether you like it or not, this is politics.

    The IMF is really poisonous. Accepting IMF loans is just drinking poison to quench your thirst!

    Although the film's reputation is relatively lost, it really exposes the connotation of politics. The most powerful one is not made up, but based on real events, comparable to "House of Cards". Aunt Bullock's butt-baring is really cool, but compared to the politicians' style, it can only be regarded as a childish performance. The film slapped the Democratic campaign with a resounding slap in the face. 7.3 points
