“In a society dominated by irrationality, it is difficult to come to power with rational discourses. So what to do? You must use irrational discourses! The rational part of the society will understand your tactic and vote for you. What about after coming to power? Irrational discourses should be completely thrown away and the country should be governed with rational policies. In fact, the easy part of the job is to win elections, the hard part is to manage the country with rational policies. The history of the world is full of examples that led their countries to disaster by applying irrational policies after winning an election.” — Mehmet Murat Ildan
