The colonel who taught us at Ankara Atatürk High School used to get up on the desk before the test and make this warning:Those who cheat in the test will a) be kicked out of school and b) get a black eye.We all knew this soldier, who was really a nice person and used to make the class fun with jokes, would never strike a student. That's why we used to smile at him as he tried to be a tough guy on top of a desk.To tell you the truth, I watch the Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu and Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli, who use very harsh words against Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan at their parliamentary group meetings, the way I used to this colonel. As if they didn't just lose the elections after their campaigns dominated by similar antics and faced similar defeats in past elections, they were once again at it on Tuesday. However, these angry outbursts increased support for the AK Party, not them.Moreover, especially Bahçeli is a very emotional guy in his private life. Whenever he is sad, he finds solace in songs. It is as if life is suspended in time. When not in power, does life seem as if it has come to a stop?There is an anecdote from the famous heart surgeon De Bakey. De Bakey performed a heart surgery on a mechanic, replacing three arteries going to the heart.The man paid the doctor $30,000. A while later, the doctor's car acted up on him. The mechanic worked on it for two hours and charged $300, asking the doctor if this was fair. The doctor smiled and said, "I didn't stop your heart while performing the surgery. If you had not stopped the motor to fix the car, your fee would have been different."Will these outbursts ever end?Erdoğan talked about this problem at the meeting. "Those who accuse the AK Party of this tension caused by outburst should first look at themselves in the mirror and reappraise their attitude," said the prime minister. "What they are doing now is hiding their defeat and incompetence by creating tension." Being in government for all these years, it is hard for Erdoğan to understand the opposition's attitude.What would you do if there was no way you could win in an election? You could ignore all local and global problems and turn politics into a regime war and force ideological polarization. Or you could focus on Prime Minister Erdoğan. What should we say tomorrow?Our politicians destined to remain in opposition did the same during the lost years in the past. While the left and right were fighting each other, Turkey failed to keep up with the race to modernize and develop. The public was blind to the fact that the country was not progressing at all. The media and intellectuals were also tricked and all real problems were left unresolved.Politicians, who sit with their lackeys at night to discuss things to say the next day in order to escalate tension should realize this is not a strategy that will bring success.In such an atmosphere, it falls to Prime Minister Erdoğan to relieve the pressure.This is because he also has other responsibilities like governing the country, protecting its stability and ensuring that Turkey achieves the objectives it set out for 2023.
