The one that their court used to justify anulling the election results.

"Wah, our opponent got too many likes on social media, that's clearly foreign election interference and we need to overturn the results of the democratic process we say we care so much about."

"Oops, turns out it was actually our fault."

The candidate that won was a shitty right-winger, but they're likely going to get away with this and Western countries will be free to use the same bullshit excuse if a leftist ever wins.

"Putin is an evil anti-democratic dictator, which is why we have to throw out the result of our election."
