Fijóo doesn’t want an affair with Sánchez on TVE: in this way, he projects a suspicion of political bias on the country’s public television, which leads to a Trumpist accusation (“me against the system”) that in this populist era upwards It can also be interpreted as cowardice: not daring to enter a territory that you perceive to be hostile betrays weakness, lack of courage, cowardice as a leader. One of two
Feijóo does want to go to the set of El hormiguero, because he senses that it will be favorable to him. He walks in slowly, wearing a marengo gray summer jacket, white shirt unbuttoned to the third button (with hair on his chest) to give Sánchez the ball back on what Sanchismo is, at the outset: “Lies, manipulation and evil ” (the same words the president uses against the rebels). And he claims the modulating and centrist role: “We gave the socialists the mayorship of Barcelona”.
Pablo Motos puts Alberto Núñez Feijóo in front of the recent pacts with Vox: the candidate distances himself from sexist violence, takes the opportunity to ask for more votes for the PP and once again recalls the gift of Barcelona to the socialists as a guarantee of a statesman. And he coined the phrase: “I am not Pedro Sánchez”, that is to say: “I will not agree with Bildu (or with independenceists)”. Feijóo claims that at the age of 61 “I will not negotiate the rights and freedoms of our Constitution”. Applause
Sánchez provoked several bursts of applause, but Feijóo surpassed them by a long way. Good question from Motos: Will Santiago Abascal be vice president? “I have decided on a vice president and a minister of economy, and they are good, but I won’t say.” Applause He announced that he will change the law that allows a teenage girl to undergo an irreversible operation without parental consent. Applause Ex Tax Applause A minor will not have an abortion without the knowledge of the parents or a judge. Applause Euthanasia… Applause. He gets emotional when he explains the case of the dying father.
Pablo Motos raises a rosary of interesting, difficult, complex issues. The candidate faces them with ease. And jokes: “Like a motorcycle, our economy?” (alludes to Sánchez’s expression and plays with the presenter’s surname): “If you elect me, I will not lie to you”. Applause
Applause, to applause, applause. Pablo Motos gives a good political interview and Alberto Núñez Feijóo gets applause for almost every answer.
And he has managed to get in well: “My six-year-old son will see the program tonight for the first time, but not for me or you: for the ants”. Skilled, very skilled.
