Nothing will be the same again. It is not a question of making predictions, even less of addressing the auspices which, once again, USA, They failed miserably in their prophecies. Once again, this is enough, as the classics of looking and seeing always advise. And if you can, learn. Everything changed in just a week. damn DANA devastated several regions, notably Valencia, and asset He easily won an election where, if you listen to the demoscopes, everything was – literally – “on a thread”.
Apart from the enormous human tragedy and the property left behind by the flood, its first political effects are already beginning to be felt, which will have to be untangled in the months to come. Look, there are briefly three: absolute break between the Government and the Popular Party; serious divide between Feijoo, the president of the latter party and his Valencian counterpart Carlos Mazon; and the most delicate: cracks, now indisputable, between two palaces of power: the Operetta and the Moncloa.
In parts: the trap that Sánchez imagined for cajole the PP and demanding that he vote on his budgets is so petty, so petty, so vile, that Feijóo did well to reject it. He said to him: money for “your” Valencia for the Budgets and Feijóo replied: another dog with this bone. There is no longer any possible armistice between the two, so that if “this”, the horrible mandate of Sánchez, extends (and that is as long as possible) until the 27th, we will live in perpetual convulsion full of disqualifications and even insults. A recent former minister of this government is right when he proclaims: “Make no mistake, Sánchez will resist until the imperative moment comes to call elections.” “Only,” he adds almost gently, “justice can put an end to it.
So, as the villagers usually say when they credit everything they check in their time: “The Greens have Ségao”. Because, when harvesting Parliament, It is predictable that the actors will be cut off by the sickle, sickle and hammer of the communists who will threaten but will not give in. Where will they go, disgusting politicians, who better win? To nowhere. What can we say about the Basque and Catalan separatists, the PNV in the lead, specialists in repression and blackmail against the bosses of a state in crisis? Moreover, Sánchez and Feijóo, after DANA, declared war on each other, even with Feijóo’s tone resembling the measured warning of an old-school prefect that so infuriates the PP faithful.
Today, with Trump’s victory, we discovered something that was predictable anyway: both Sánchez and Feijóo wanted his defeat and remained with their tails between their legs, waiting for the miracle that Asset, who believes himself sent by God, does not launch another flood against Europe and, therefore, of course, against Spain.
This first Spain does not bode well for us. Moreover, to make matters worse, the PP engages in an internal fight which has only one peremptory virtue: discretion, because none of the protagonists wants to be noticed to what extent separates them from each other. Some suggest, and this is not false, that the relations between the two members of the PP, Feijóo and Carlos Mazónhave been seriously damaged since the second, apparently ignoring the orders of the PP staff, decided to form a government with Voice before the elections are held. Since then, they have looked at each other with a bad eye and no longer have much confidence in each other’s decisions.
Now, with the DANA By demolishing half of the Valencian province, the differences in criteria between the two have become evident, while the great architect of the disaster, the infamous Pedro Sánchez, an unseemly fugitive, presents himself to the media as if he had been the subject to attack. like that of Aznar at the time. “I’m fine,” the subject said, but no one could describe that he suffered any kind of attack. He mocks the opponents, watches them tear themselves apart and opens the checkbook to flood with notes what is now unfortunately flooded with water and mud.
This is the very embarrassing part of what DANA has left in the flesh of the Spanish right, always on the verge of shooting itself in the foot. But in addition, in this bleak panorama, something was revealed that we had already glimpsed: the lack of harmony, a parsimonious euphemism, between the King and his president. The distancing comes from afar. In the Operetta They regret, with all the rights in the world, that the Head of the Executive does not consider it appropriate, as has always been the democratic custom in Spain since the Transition, to communicate regularly with the Head of State. Today, this symptom of distance has become completely evident.
The image of this King ours, discussing like a courageous man with angry fools who, precisely, reproached him for the absence of the State as such in the catastrophe, violently clashed with the attitude of a Sánchez on the run injured by a shovel of which there is no trace. In this regard, a diplomat who knows very well the ins and outs of what is happening in the two palaces told the columnist on Wednesday: “But does anyone believe that a vain egoist like Sánchez will forgive the king for denouncing him? ” “In no way,” he added, “this incident only aggravates Sánchez’s intention to liquidate the parliamentary monarchy as quickly as possible.”
It is likely that we Spaniards do not yet understand the importance of this incident, because it seems that the triumph of a Trump who does not want to continue paying for the framework of the NATO, who feels comfortable negotiating, as equals, with the murderer Putin, who wants to impose customs duties even on the air we breathe, and who has for Europe, and therefore for ‘Spain, the same affection he professes for the left-wing democrats of Harris which he swept aside in historic polls. The Spain that DANA and Trump leave us, unfortunately coinciding in time, is an invitation to prepare for what awaits us. Spain is disappearing in step with Sánchez’s indignities, just as entire towns in the Valencian Community have been wiped off the map. In the United States, Trump appears as a monkey visionary with a razor in his hand, and here, in our country, Sánchez is a howitzer against the country itself, a projectile that is now preparing to liquidate the king to continue in the macho. As it looks. At any price.
