Un alto cargo del Gobierno de coalición socialista comunista me comentaba que se levantaban cada mañana en La Moncloa sin un plan o una estrategia más allá de la voluntad de Sánchez de mantenerse en el cargo. Es decir, cada día tiene su afán. Por tanto, sigue a pies juntillas la definición de este dicho que señala que «no hay que agobiarse con lo que suceda mañana o en un futuro próximo, pues ya es bastante con afrontar las dificultades de cada día».

1
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:13.640
Sanchism or propaganda as a form of
government, a high office of the communist

2
00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:18.280
socialist coalition government. He told me
that they got up every morning in the

3
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.879
Moncloa without a plan or strategy beyond
Sanchez' s will to stay in office,

4
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:27.280
that is, every day he has
his eagerness. The definition of this

5
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:31.079
saying, which states that we should
not be burdened with what happens tomorrow or

6
00:00:31.120 --> 00:00:34.799
in the near future, is still
being put together, because it is enough

7
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:39.280
to face the difficulties of every day
of recognizing that I understand, apart from

8
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:43.320
any ethical or moral consideration, that
I do not want to leave the Presidency,

9
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:46.880
because it is the best destiny for
a professional politician. The alternative of

10
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:50.359
retirement and thickening the list of Chinese
vases is not something that seduces them.

11
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.399
Now we have the realization that he
never thought of resigning and that the five

12
00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:59.520
days of April was another gesture of
propaganda faltered by his hosts and the media

13
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:04.560
fond of Sanchismo. Therefore, the
future is always uncertain, but even more

14
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:10.239
so in the hands of a populist
leader who is characterized by being unpredictable and

15
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:15.840
displaying amazing changes of opinion that are
unparalleled in our recent history. The fundamental

16
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.439
basis of Sanchismo is its absence of
an ideology, as well as the continued

17
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:23.760
use of propaganda as a form of
government. Throughout history, many thinkers have

18
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:29.200
raised the forms of government. To
recognize my weakness for the classics, although

19
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.840
you have to put them in the
context of their time and the experiences they

20
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:37.799
lived. We have all studied Plato
and Aristotle with the idealized Athenian democracy or

21
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:41.280
the system of balance of power that
emerged in Rome, with all the nuances

22
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:44.439
that we want, with the fall
of the monarchy and the end of the

23
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.480
Republic, with the Principality of August. The idea of limiting power is as

24
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:53.439
old as necessary. Brass proposes five
forms of government that represent a progressive degeneration

25
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.560
of justice and the common good.
Aristocracy, timocracy or ligarchy. Democracy and

26
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:01.439
tyranny. Its n r s r
TE of Aristotle offers a different classification,

27
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.040
based on the number of people who
govern and whether they do so for the

28
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:09.639
common good or for their own interests. Monarchy, tyrant Aristocracy, ligarchy,

29
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:14.840
polytheia or Republic and democracy. Plato' s vision is pessimistic and seeks an

30
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:21.560
unfeasible idealism, except in theory,
while Aristotle is more pragmatic and assumes that

31
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:24.199
forms of government can degenerate, so
politics, the government of many for the

32
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:30.800
common good, leads to a more
balanced and just system. The Romans resolved

33
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:34.599
in the dilemma by adapting the Republic
with social struggles, to a system of

34
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:38.560
balance of powers so that no one
could become a tyrant. I am not

35
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:42.159
going to go into the doubts about
what really happened during the monarchy and last

36
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:46.000
king tar than the proud, but
the system worked until civil wars. Despite

37
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:50.039
this, the Roman Empire survived several
centuries under the rule of the emperors,

38
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.520
the formulation of the theory and the
separation of powers that it does initially what

39
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:58.719
and then consecratedly what is currently in
danger in Spain because of the Sanchismo and

40
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:04.800
its political and media allies. It
is not a trivial question because Sánchez has

41
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.120
decided to govern for his own benefit
and a political caste that joins his positions

42
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:13.759
without an attism of criticism or self- criticism. The most powerful instrument in

43
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:17.960
their survival strategy is propaganda. Amnesty
is an example of the dangerous drift of

44
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:23.000
Spanish democracy. To this must be
added the client policies, the search for

45
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:29.120
confrontation and radicalization, the assault of
the administration and the stigmatization of the adversary.

46
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:31.960
The decision made after the spiritual retreat
of the five days of April,

47
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:37.919
to attack, point out and pressure
judges, journalists and businessmen is a symptom

48
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.960
that it wants to end the counter- powers that are the foundation of any

49
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:45.120
democracy. Of course, masked,
as we have seen throughout history, with

50
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:50.560
regenerationist projects. The disturbing reality is
that weight does not exist and has been

51
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:54.039
transformed into sanchism, where one commands
and the rest obeys. Although there is

52
00:03:54.120 --> 00:04:00.159
a polytburo or Sanhedrin surrounding the charismatic
leader. The reaction to the discredited gift

53
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:03.199
of Amnesty is the realization of this
situation, but also the erratic foreign policy

54
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:09.080
or scandalous regenerationist plan that no one
has called for, except for the mariaches

55
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:12.960
of Sanchismo. Years ago I asked
an Argentine former president what Peronism was,

56
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:17.079
because I was surprised by the ideological
variety of its currents. He replied that

57
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.720
it was enough to say that you
were and to embrace the common and objective

58
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:24.439
power. He explained to me that
one day he was visited by a politician

59
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:29.959
who wanted to be a Peronist and
so he was appointed a judge of the

60
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.519
Supreme Court. He replied that it
was very simple. You have to convince

61
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.279
yourself that you are. When you
get out of my house, you tell

62
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:39.800
the doorman you' re a Peronist, you do the same thing with your

63
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:41.639
driver and when you get home with
your wife. That' s enough for

64
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:44.000
you to be such a saintly man. It' s the same thing.

65
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.680
Those who betrayed him and wanted to
destroy them are his most faithful defenders.

66
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:50.199
They have not had to do anything
but embrace the government of one in order

67
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:55.959
to benefit from the effects of a
power that wants neither limits nor counterweights.

68
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:00.399
It is good to remind you that
the Soviet Union promoted the model of popular

69
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.199
fronts in Europe with the aim of
ending the rule of law and the separation

70
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:06.920
of powers. I' d like
Sanchez to be the liberal socialist I knew again.
