He can say that he is not the same, but not that we are not the same. Florestan.
The project of the fourth transformation is all at stake in the election in 2024.
Time and time again, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has said that it has already been consolidated, including the revolution of consciences, but he has also left doubts, since five years and ten months are insufficient, in which I agree, to consummate it, especially when he compares it with what he identifies as his referents: independence, reform and revolution, which took them many more years.
But although he always has other data, deep down he knows that he needs time and an operator, his successor, successor, to consolidate it.
And that is why his priority is in the presidential succession, like all his predecessors in the middle of the government and even before.
As I see it, he has to operate on three fronts: control of Morena, which only he can recover, without him it does not exist; weaken, as it has done permanently, the autonomous electoral bodies, INE and the Electoral Tribunal, for which it has announced that this year it will bring out the electoral reform, which seeks to dissolve and align them, in any case the presidency of Lorenzo Córdoba ends in April of the year that is coming, and break the opposition alliance that won his stronghold, Mexico City, in the elections of June last year, but could not with the governorships at stake in which he swept away.
And of those he has mentioned he has a letter, Claudia Sheinbaum, much more radical than him, whom he cites every day, extends and increases his message.
But, beware, it is no longer the only one.
