President Andrés Manuel López Obrador criticized what his adversaries say about the black friday for democracy (for the approval of the ruling to eliminate the autonomous organizations and the confirmation of the qualified majority of Morena in the Chamber of Deputies): “why black? And on Friday, why black fridayif it was the day of democracy?
During his conference, he used irony to disqualify his critics because they are showing a lot of copper about what is happening
. He asked his opponents to ask the people about the election of judges, magistrates and ministers, that is democracy, but we are reaching a point of confusion, a obsession bordering on the ridiculous
.
He reviewed the intellectuals of the old regime who have radicalized positions that were already they are embarrassing
expressly mentioning the historian Enrique Krauze, who was long considered an organic right-wing intellectual, very close to all neoliberal governments, a guru
.
The president focused his judgments on the recent statements where Krauze maintains that After being a monarchy, Mexico became a republic on October 4, 1824. 200 years passed. In September 2024, Mexico will stop being a republic and become a monarchy.
I mean, We are all going to prepare ourselves because on October 1st we are going to crown Claudia Carlota of Mexico
he said before laughing at that stance.
And he added: It’s ridiculous; this has no historical basis, no scientific rigor, it’s a mockery. We’re talking about one of the most famous. I already have it on my list, because we’re going to send everyone, before I finish, an acknowledgement.
. All this to confirm that the government that Claudia Sheinbaum will lead will be the best in the world
.
