Gonzalo de la Carrera is left more and more alone after the attack on the Vice President of the Chamber of Deputies, Alexis Sepúlveda. On this day, the parliamentary deputy was denied on television after accusing fake news against him.
De la Carrera spoke on the morning show ‘Contigo’ on Chilevisión to refer to the fist bump he gave a colleague in Congress. In this context, she was consulted for a tweet on her Twitter account that said “thank you very much for the support. I did not sleep last night. I have reviewed the thousands of comments on the posts of figures from Chile Vamos, Longton, Macaya, Marcela Cubillos, etc. and people realized that he was a tongo. They sent me a goon and my instinct was to defend myself. The video of the test.
When asked about this tweet, the deputy accused the journalist of spreading fake news, because according to him, that post was from a parody account. That was when they checked the veracity of this post and it became clear that it was from his verified account. Later, De la Carrera deleted the tweet, because some of the deputies he appointed never expressed support for him, in fact, they condemned the Republican’s action.
After the information was verified, the Republican parliamentarian stated that “why do we men have to feel bullied by men, and now feel bullied by some type of women, why?”
