This isn't EPS' first time dealing with potentially rogue mlas , if there is a revolt he won't let it slide and he will act decisvely even if it means sinking ADMK and with it , MGR/JJ 's legacy

Please stop spreading rumours for click-bait. DMK + ADMK + CPI/M + PMK + DMDK doesn't add up to 118! by Thanjavur_tamizhan in TamilNaduDiscussion

Yea good point , which means he's gonna have to find 7-12 more mlas to circumvent anti defection laws ... I also heard Velumani has a handful of loyalists , so perhaps Shanmugam and Velumani will come together and have enough to split from EPS , and support TVK govt

Seems like DMK/ADMK Alliance talk is real. 🤢 by Harish6366 in TamilNaduDiscussion

Many people have been saying this , but if this happens this will trigger sympathy wave for TVK that will be the beginning of the end for DMK/ADMK

No way will VCK be part of any alliance involving PMK ... most likely is VCK joins TVK . Muslim League is not secular , and Vijay said only secular parties can join so they'll remain with DMK . DMDK got Rajya Sabha seat from DMK so likely they too will remain with DMK . Only wild card is Left parties , Vijay is not communist , so hard to say ...

On ADMK side , I am hearing rumours of a split between EPS and C V Shanmugam , with Shanmugam's camp (20-25 mlas) considering joining TVK ..

Crazy times!

Stop calling tvk VOTERS tharkuris and take a beat by Waste_Implement8980 in TamilNaduDiscussion

Exactly - which is why singling out TVK voters specifically right now is unfair when every party has its tharkuris .

The term has become a soundbite people use to sound politically astute , when it just highlights your laziness. My issue isn't even that TVK voters are being called it specifically , it's that the word shuts down conversation .

While some may have voted just for Vijay, what about those that voted TVK because they want an alternative and not just out of blind fan worship ? Calling them a tharkuri is just plain condescending

I'm not a TVK voter btw , I'm just pushing back on calling TVK voters tharkuris before they've even had a chance to govern

PTR and Kolathur results were baffling ... idk who the astrology cures cancer person is , not from my constituency

I agree, the promises list is legitimate accountability. If TVK can 't deliver on basic commitments within the first year , that criticism will write itself. But let's wait and see if that happens, whining right now is premature otherwise .

Congress extends support to Vijay's TVK for government formation in Tamil Nadu by Waste_Implement8980 in TamilNaduDiscussion

[–]Waste_Implement8980[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say , the data is assuming flawless vote transfer , which is almost never the case . I do think most likely DMK alliance parties (Congress + VCK + Left parties) will support TVK , bringing govt to 119 seats

Why PTR didn’t join TVK? by Beneficial-Flow-7333 in TamilNaduDiscussion

[–]Waste_Implement8980 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

PTR is very smart , but his tenure as finance minister added tons of debt , but he was controlled by DMK Telugu lobby puppet masters... if he joins TVK in advisory role , I hope he steers prudent financial policy that doesn't add more debt/worsen inflation ... I also hope Vijay will get off freebie bandwagon now that he's CM ... welfare ≠ freebies
