Seneca said that success is an arrow shot at the stars, which is still a random appeal, but he forgot to warn that even with such imprecise goals, we must be careful not to injure anyone in the path of the arrow. José María Aznar has dragged the PP into convening a mass demonstration on September 24 against a possible amnesty that would facilitate the Junts vote to impeach Pedro Sánchez. But this protest is hasty, because no amnesty law has yet been presented to Congress and because it will take place two days before Feijóo tries to be impeached.
The strategy of the popular people is not understood. Steve Jobs once warned that the essence of all strategy is deciding what not to do, but Génova seems to have forgotten that. Convening at the gates of Feijóo’s investiture weakens him, because it is recognizing his status as an opposition. In addition, the protest is the most similar to a preventive war, since Sánchez has not spoken publicly about amnesty, although it is clear that he is thinking about it to get the support of Junts, but it is unknown who it would affect if it were to materialize . The act of the 24th of this month does nothing to strengthen Feijóo, who has always defended that politics is done in the institutions and not in the streets. The one who strengthens is Aznar, who once again appears as the natural leader of the party, the reference that marks the line of the organization.
This strategy of noise can unite the PSOE instead of dividing it, when it is clear that the possibility of amnesty has caused discomfort among some barons, but also in intellectual circles. Above all, because a part of independence not only takes for granted the granting of this measure of grace, but because it has even counted the hundreds of people it should include. And, in addition, he has petulantly insisted that, despite everything, they are not ready to give up unilateralism.
Success may be an arrow shot to the stars, but be careful of the impacts it causes along the way. In addition: the management of Vox is rubbing its hands, thinking that they have the possibility of taking the flag from the PP in the protest.
