They lost their fear of Lopez!

There are three lessons – and irrefutable citizen triumphs –, of the opposition vote that, last weekend, brought down López Obrador’s loquacious electricity reform.
A social learning that confirms the viability of removing the populist government of AMLO from power, in the presidential election of 2024.
Here are the lessons.
1.- That both legislators and politicians of Morena, as well as their peers from the PRI, PAN, PRD and Movimiento Ciudadano, “lost their fear” of the vengeful Mexican president.
And it is that despite the repeated presidential threats and against the blackmails coming out of the Palace there were very few deputies, party leaders and politicians who betrayed their constituents; they are barely counted on the fingers of one hand.
Worse, the best example is the Green Party, where a couple of federal legislators did not follow the line of their prostitute party leadership, while in Morena a couple of legislators did not turn out to vote.
And when the political class loses fear and respect for a leader, then we can talk about “the debacle”; that ghost that runs through the Palace, Morena and all their governments.
And, in fact, López has received two consecutive beatings – Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday–, which confirms “the loneliness of the king”, the loss of power and that – whether he wants to or not –, the Mexican president “lives more alone than ever” while his government resents the worst disdain in its history.
2.- That “Easter Sunday” in the Chamber of Deputies actually meant the resurgence of opposition parties in Mexico, including PRI, PAN, PRD and Movimiento Ciudadano.
A resurrection that, in reality, unified the opponents and that also made possible the recovery of citizen confidence in the parties; formations for which in 2021 those who reject the current government, his party and his political project voted.
But the clearest message of the reappearance of morena’s opponents is that, above all, PRI, PAN and PRD, they open the possibility of a unity candidacy for the presidential election of the already close 2024.
Indeed, once the Mexican political opposition was resurrected, the chances of a citizen victory against the satrap of Palacio are favored on all fronts.
3.- But the most important of the three lessons of the legislative rejection of the Bartlett Law is the growing role of citizens – the ruling power –, expressed in the vigilance of each of the legislators, of their decisions, their disagreements of congruence and even their betrayals.
And it is that thanks to the networks, not a few citizens – the real constituents –, forging a personalized surveillance of those to whom in the “intermediate election” they granted the mandate through the vote.
That is why, in the legislative process last Sunday, the constituents – in their most important citizen role –, demanded congruence from those who gave them their vote.
In this way, the circle between the principal and the president was closed – between the citizen and his representative –, and between the owner of the decisions in democracy – the citizen –, and his representatives in Congress.
In the end, the victory in the Mexican Congress was a citizen victory; a triumph of social courage over fear.
And it is that today few fear the dictator of the Palace, the king motejado as president.
And there are fewer who fear it if we remember that, from the first day of the presentation of the electricity reform, here we said that it was a reform that was stillborn.
Therefore, below is a summary of those deliveries of the Political Itinerary in which we warned that what finally happened on Sunday in San Lázaro would happen; that the electricity reform would be rejected.
In the Political Itinerary of October 25, 2021, entitled: “Electricity reform condemned to die!”, I said that on president López Obrador’s desk “there is already the official position of the governments of the United States and Canada and the answer, in both cases, is a resounding “no””.
That is, the governments of Mexico’s two main trading partners are rejecting the “blackout” reform.
Days later, on November 15, 2021, in the Political Itinerary entitled: “AMLO and the funeral of the Electric Reform!”, I said that in his meeting with the leaders of the TMEC the Mexican president had received a resounding refusal from his trading partners in the United States and Canada to his proposal for an electric refoma.
Therefore the conclusion was as follows: “López Obrador knows that by going to the encThe trilateral group from Mexico, the United States and Canada also attended the funeral of his electrical reform.”
I returned to the subject on November 3, 2021 and wrote that “it is a fact that AMLO’s electricity reform will be rejected not only by the Mexican Congress, but by the whole world.
“Why?
“Because the international community has already spoken out against an initiative by the loquacious Mexican president that jeopardizes some of the most ambitious investments in Mexico.
“And if you doubt it, on November 11, the Spanish Siemens Gamesa, which invested 500 million dollars in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in Oaxaca, canceled the land rental contracts where it had installed wind towers of one of the most ambitious wind energy projects.” (End quote)
Yesterday afternoon Morena and López made a fool of themselves again: they approved a law that goes against the Constitution and that in reality aims to alleviate the ardor of the defeats of the loquacious Mexican president.
A president who day by day weakens to levels of national shame. At the same time.
