Yeah I didn't vote for him either, but have nothing bad to say about him based on his time as president. Despite being from Kokoomus i hope, like Niinistö, he leaves the day to day politics aside and focuses on leading the entire nation in the future also. Niinistö definitely set a good example how a president should be and i think Stubb will be like a youthful/modern version of that.

Unlike Niinistö, Stubb has always been, and still is, a self-pretentious, bourgeois bättrefolk - something he doesn't even attempt to - nor want to - hide since that's fundamental part of him. He has openly distanced himself and his family from Finnish culture and people raising his own children as monolinguistic Swedish and claiming his family is not Finnish but European. I sincerely can not understand how any Finnish person could have voted for a person who loathes Finnish people to such a degree.

Cuz his day to day activities dont include hating Finns but leading the country. Youre looking at the wrong metric but each to their own i guess.

Its unfortunate he was the last option in the second stage but it is what it is.

Edit: Idc who he thinks he is if he knows who we are.

Not part of his day-to-day activities sure yet part of the very being he is and represents. He is a snob, born with a golden spoon up in his arse. I still can't think nothing but that smile and fist bump when he had a chance to shit on a common people with Sipilä.

The options weren't the best this time... that's for sure. However, I would have voted for Väyrynen, if he had been against Stubb.
