“Alito’s” management has alienated key figures who could have revitalized the party, forcing them to seek new platforms. In this context, the Green Party has played a fundamental role, opening the doors to dissatisfied PRI members. What was once a party with an environmentalist agenda has become a political springboard for those in need of a fresh start, adapting with surprising pragmatism to the needs of the moment.
Enrique de la Madrid finds himself at a crossroads. Although he has maintained his loyalty to the PRI, his leadership style and his innovative discourse clash with the stagnation of the party. His technical profile, experience in economic and tourism issues, and his last name allow him to connect with both traditional sectors and those in search of modernity. This makes him an attractive politician for projects outside the PRI, such as that of the Green Party and, eventually, that of Morena.
4T destiny?
Why would Morenoism open the doors to you? Morena has proven to be pragmatic by adding profiles that complement his transformation project, and Enrique offers just that: credibility, experience and a connection with moderate sectors that could strengthen the government’s narrative of continuity. His time at the Ministry of Tourism, where he promoted programs such as Pueblos Mágicos, fits with the regionalist and sustainable development vision that Morena has prioritized. Furthermore, his network of contacts with former PRI members who today collaborate with the 4T could facilitate his integration.
The Green Party, as a bridge, could be the ideal scenario for Enrique to maintain his validity, moving away from the controversies of the PRI and building a political transition that brings him closer to Morenoism. However, the path is neither linear nor automatic. This movement would put him in an interesting position: should he opt to join the hegemonic project of the 4T or lead a moderate opposition that seeks a new way of doing politics?
