Jorge Asís: “If the Court dares you, wear a delicatessen”

Journalist Jorge Asis stressed that the great success of Cristina Kirchner was to have chosen Alberto Fernandez as a candidate, but ended in disaster. However, he spoke of a new generation of references that “are in better conditions to have a truly civil dialogue”, in Fontevecchia modefor net tv Y RadioProfile (FM 101.9).

In your last column, on the Asís Digital portal, you analyzed the conflict between Alberto Fernández and the Court. What is your analysis about it?

It is a question of power. The Court is the cautiously more bureaucratic, slow and conservative body. For the Court to advance over the Executive, the Executive must have ostensibly squandered power, or something more serious, never having exercised it.

The problem is not a conflict of powers, it is that there is no power. Nestor Kirchner He did infinitely worse things with the Court than what Alberto intended to do, but he did them at a moment of his personal construction in which he could do anything, and all the media celebrated “the end of the addicted Court”, and all that kind of of things.

The impeachment trial of the Supreme Court could begin on January 26

If you dare the Supreme Court, wear a deli. It makes no sense to attack the Court on the eve of an electoral campaign. Borges says that the only worthy causes that a gentleman should defend are lost causes. As it is a lost cause, I do not know what is the point of attacking and generating this conflict.

Today it is as foolish and useless to attack the Court as it is to defend it. It is almost a complement to the very impossibility of coexistence. But the opposition also does something similar to the attack on the Court. Start attacking CELAC for its presence. It is a worrying nonsense, signed by some specialists in geopolitics and diplomacy.

The meaning is obvious: stamp this ruling party with the caricature of Chávez, Cuba and Ortega, when, in practice, andhe who governs is Massa and the one who attends the administration is Manzur. And between Manzur and Massa there is more strong and solid capitalism than in all of Together for Change.

The role of the vice president in the elections

Do you think that Cristina Kirchner will comply by not running as a candidate?

Of course, and it is a success. Cristina’s great success was having chosen Alberto as a candidate. It all ended in disaster, although Alberto Fernández presents it as an epic.

The other success is to distance himself from his candidacy. Argentina is not there for it to be settled again between Cristina and Macri. There is another generation of referents, as Pichetto would say, “the substitutes”, who they are in a better position to have a truly civil dialogue.

Argentina misses a historic moment due to the structural need of its leadership.

The new political referents in Argentina

In that generation of “substitutes”, or, as Larreta calls it, the generation of ’23, will the two main emerging players be Sergio Massa and Horacio Rodríguez Larreta?

Yes, who won the game of democracy. It seems to me that they have A problem with Macriwho is the candidate without being one.

Jorge Macri: “From the inside I feel that there is no tension between Horacio Rodríguez Larreta and Mauricio Macri”

larreta It has some difficulties, but it is “non-conflict”. Argentina overflows with conflicts and the best thing is to have a reference that does not enter into the conflict, such as Scioli or Massa, who rightly does not want to talk about 2023.

Do you think that the choice can be settled between Sergio Massa and Horacio Rodríguez Larreta?

If that happened, it would be a symptom that we are in a country with bridges. They are friends, they even worked together.

What I I celebrate Larreta is that tendency to speak of 60% or 70% consensus in society. The rest is tied with something weaker than the wire, because political issues limit too much.

Do you give up the election for the Frente de Todos?

For nothing. That is not to be believed. One of the common places is that Kirchnerism wants to take refuge in the province of Buenos Aires. Actually, here there are federal territorial alternatives that are being studied and fronts that are leaving to dispute the breadcrumbs.

The Governor of Mendoza and the wish to the President: “It was not a mistake”

But finally there are two great forces, Together for Change and the Front of All. There is a problem that has to do with the definition of “doctor” and The Camporethat I at the time described as an “employment agency”.

The political scenario of the main fronts

Can you imagine that the vice president will have a political future within the Frente de Todos after not being a candidate in 2023?

Of course he has a political future. He is still the most important leader. It seems they have excessive personal issues that personalize their candidacy. And Peronism is not here to gamble entirely for “hotel problems.” She has to know.

Macri is moving very successfully. In Mar del Plata he behaves like a statesman. Thanks to Alberto, his failure was diluted. Alberto’s attacks consolidate him very strongly. When you have a guy who is on the top floor and attacks you, encourage him to keep attacking you.

Do you think Macri could be a candidate?

Of course. I don’t think it’s convenient for that force. They have some serious issues that can be surprising in an internship setting if they can’t agree.

Larreta hopes to accommodate the garbage but Macri and Bullrich want to break the economic truce

The problem is its complement that drags Together for Change, the Radical Civic Union. The most important thing about the phenomenon is the launch of the candidacy of Maximiliano Abad by the Province of Buenos Aires. They should worry about the rest of the Province’s candidates.

And along with him Facundo Manes.

Clear. facundo manes he is a perfected copy of what Rodolfo Terragno was in the ’80s. He talked about the same things that Facundo Manes talks about today, and Alfonsín made him a minister.

A formula with Larreta and the reappearance of Manes: the requests of a sector of radicalism to define the lists

Manes won the radical internal. Politics must also be looked at from a territorial scope. You have to tell the friends of the PRO that they believe that they can easily “inherit” the Nation, the provinces and keep the capital, which is the capital that they most need to keep.

I’ll give you the title of my next note: “the importance of preserving the maxikiosk”. The capital is essential, and the PRO cannot lose it.
