It's actually a wonderful election match

The Prime Minister of Canada and the Secretary of State of the United States are simply impossible to match, right? The issue of conflicts of interest is unsolvable, and American voters are even less likely to elect the wife of the Canadian prime minister as president.

Diaosi unemployed reporters seem to be an unsuitable match, but they are actually an excellent election strategy:

1. The president of the United States needs a stable marriage and family. Voters will not choose a single president. Imagine that a president who is lonely is suddenly upset and wants to issue a nuclear bomb. Therefore, if a female secretary of state wants to elect a president, she must first solve the marriage problem.

2. Although Diaosi reporters have a lot of minor problems, they have no major conflicts of interest and are not capable of doing evil anyway. For example, when Hillary Clinton elected president, Clinton was actually negative equity.

3. Diaosi reporters can help attract grassroots votes, just to make up for the shortcomings of female secretary of state taking the elite route. After all, the grassroots class has the most votes in the election.

Therefore, the female secretary of state detonating the scandal in advance is the smartest election strategy. Instead of leaving a handle in the hands of others, or breaking out on the eve of the vote, it is better to detonate it earlier, so that it can reasonably draw a line from the current president and step on the front. The boss’s superiority, after all, the incumbent president is not an advantage in elections, and no matter what he does, he will be criticized.

As for the gold masters behind the scenes, it is actually very realistic. Whoever is most likely to be elected president will support whoever. Anyway, after being elected, you can always negotiate deals.

The so-called "the benevolent see the benevolence, the wise see the wisdom", the plot in the movie can be interpreted from the innocent perspective of fairy tales, or from a very utilitarian perspective. This is also the success of this movie?
