"Stannis? He’s cold, rigid, and thinks the crown is his by right, but a king needs more than a claim. A king needs the love of the people, the power to inspire. Stannis rules with fear and duty, but that’s not what wins hearts—or wars. He might have the bloodline, but I have something he’ll never have: the people's trust. They want a king who smiles, not scowls. Stannis can sit in his dark corner with his stubborn pride, but the realm needs hope, not a tyrant who barely knows how to laugh."
