Maciej Stasiński (Gazeta Wyborcza): During the interview for “Gazeta Wyborcza” in July you said: 'I am certain of Trump’s victory just as I have been certain of Brexit'. Others did not believe you, but it turns out that you were right. What’s next?
Sławomir Sierakowski: Brexit and Trump mean a farewell to liberal democracy as the canon of western politics. Since there is no model to turn to, can we expect that Poland will buck global trends and restore liberal democracy? Trump’s election means that the US will be governed by the same kind of lunatics as Poland.
