I saw a chart that globally, the incumbent parties have lost more in these elections than before. Incumbents are down across the globe https://www.ft.com/content/e8ac09ea-c300-4249-af7d-109003afb893

I'd guess this is because things are going badly economically, so people wanted change.

It is a fact that china and russia are mingeling in foreign afairs and give money supporting political parties in countrys with their interest. The AfD and BSW in germany are great examples. Actively getting paid by and spy for russia and china. Krah (AfD) employed actively chinese spys in his political office.

Yeah, they wanted change. But then the fascists conveniently swooped in and pretended they offered the type of change people actually wanted. (Cheap eggs, etc.)
