They don’t mind setting sail without a rudder because they have no course. Florestan.
When on August 31, 2016, President Enrique Peña Nieto met in Los Pinos with the then Republican candidate Donald Trump, Andrés Manuel López Obrador demanded that the recording of their private meeting be released and that he offer an apology to the people of Mexico. . He also said that Trump ignored him and undermined him.
Now, almost six years later, on Sunday in Ohio, Trump spoke about how he threatened López Obrador, already President of the Republic, whom he doubled as he had never seen someone like that doubled before and how he managed to get him to deploy, and for free, 28 thousand soldiers on the Mexican side. That when he released it, he laughed and said: Free? Why would we do that in Mexico? To which he threatened him with tariffs on all Mexican exports, to which he replied, according to Trump: Sir, it would be an honor to have 28,000 soldiers on the border; it would be an honor to have Stay in Mexico. We want to have Stay in Mexico.
Well, unlike what he demanded in 2016, on Monday, when asked his opinion on those statements, he replied: Well, I like President (sic) Trump. The truth is that we understood each other, to later say no, no, no, no, he didn’t disrespect me, he’s like that.
Is what he said false? -They Asked
“I’m not going to argue,” he got off topic.
I do not know the ways, because now he did not demand a copy of the recording of that meeting, but the facts confirm what Trump revealed: that he deployed 28,000 national guards to contain migration, that he accepted the Stay in Mexico and the threat of tariffs .
The rest are times and positions: from opponent to President of the Republic.
And it is not the same as the same.
PATCHWORK
1. UNIQUE.- The handling of the Covid epidemic in the 4-T government has been unique. Yesterday, before the WHO itself, Hugo López-Gatell terminated it in a political decision tailored to the president, breaching the commitment to have the Mexican Patria vaccine. And Mexico, fourth place in the world in deaths;
2. TOUR.- Claudia Sheinbaum took the president to see the replica of the Sistine Chapel in the Zócalo, accompanied by the Vatican Secretary of State, Pietro Parolín. What she did not tell him is whose business it is, who sold her the idea and for how much, which remains secret. In Mancera’s time they also rented it to him but Banorte paid for it; Y
3. TRAITORS.- Mexican politics has become a world of traitors. That is what López Obrador calls the 223 deputies who voted against his electricity reform, that is what the head of government calls them, that is what Mario Delgado accuses them of, who threatens them with jail, that is what the opposition senators called yesterday the former governor of Campeche, Carlos Miguel Aysa. And those who are not accused of being traitors, are accused of criminals. Thus that underworld of excrescences.
See you tomorrow, but in private.
