this all was made easier by the fact that PiS didn't seriously consider that they would lose elections, some pooling they did even indicated they'd get constitutional majority

That, and they took over institutions without care for actual law, in some cases it made easier to take them over after the last elections, but mostly created huge mess, two parallel legal realities and soured relations with EU massively. Don't count on either in other countries, your far-right/alt-right can be more competent
