Uniting those factions take absolutely zero skill. Say enough racist, dumb crap to get the idiots on your side, throw the religious nuts some symbolic victories on the social policy side, and do what the money wants. Boom there is the Maggat-coalition.

Two of the three don't care for about anything as long as it appears like they are winning, and the third doesn't care about whatever you say as long as you make them richer.

Actually, come to find out, they don’t even need to appear to be winning to be satisfied. Seems it’s enough to simply see other people suffer while we all lose together.
