Citizens of the War Room,
the JDragon campaign has only
@jgarner ‘ed the 4th most votes in these primaries, but our influence in this electoral season is still visible. As stated multiple times in the past weeks, success is not a matter of becoming President of the War Room, but rather achieving what the War Room needs.
I defined these needs as mainly two things: Defending the War Room against shitposters, and at the same time, reaching out across political boundaries to create a lively yet respectful discussion atmosphere. Two prominent candidates have emerged in the past days: On the one hand, you have
@irish_thug, whom I respect a lot and who I believe is a worthy candidate for the office of POTWR. A true War Room staple, and among the best candidates the WR right could have offered. And on the other hand, you have
@HomerThompson, who has earned his merits as an anti-shitposter vigilante, whose commitment to the War Room also cannot be called into question.
I've negotiated with both candidates to try and achieve the best possible outcome for the War Room.
@irish_thug has offered me a cabinet position and has proclaimed with regard to my policy proposals that "nothing's off the table, really". This appears like I would have lots of leeway to implement my policies in the context of an
@irish_thug presidency.
Unfortunately,
@irish_thug also proclaimed that he actually isn't really interested in the Sticky Thread and wants to involve citizens to bring in proposals. In other words, that means he's saying he is not interested in policy but more in the office that goes along with becoming POTWR. I could live with that if it meant that the War Room could be served and policies to improve our experience could be implemented, but I personally believe that none of my proposed measures will be successful if there is no leadership backing me up. The President of the War Room needs to believe in the things we do, it needs to align with his vision, and he needs to ensure that things can go smoothly. It is why I so explicitly asked both candidates which parts of my campaign proposals they would be willing to adopt.
Considering the proposals laid out by the
@HomerThompson campaign earlier today, I can happily confirm that we have come to an agreement. Effective immediately, the JDragon campaign suspends its activities and I will support the activities of the
@HomerThompson campaign for the final round of voting. Because at the end, this is about the War Room, and not about egos.
We're gonna take the War Room back, together, and
@HomerThompson will be our President.
