The election of the President of the Government of Spain is not directly by the Spanish people, they are elected in the Congress of Deputies by the 350 members. This perverted system could have been changed by both PSOE and PP when they had an absolute majority, but since it was the system that favored the prevailing bipartisanship, they did not. In the legislatures in which there was an absolute majority, the president in turn was able to govern without external mortgages and in accordance with the program of his own party, although even with such a strategic advantage the results obtained were always criticizable. But in those legislatures in which the president governed with conditions from other parties, specifically those of minority parties that exclusively defended parts of Spain against the rest, our country was territorially weakened as successive governments subjected the State to increasingly greater concessions. Comparatively, this has not happened in other countries around us and that is precisely the reason why Spain is currently the country with the greatest self-destructive tension in the world.
The XIII legislature that has just begun is one in which the election of the president will not only depend on his party, but will depend on others. That is, the future president and his government will carry out a management agreed upon by, at least and in the best of cases, a political force other than the PSOE. And that dependence basically boils down to two possibilities: either the plagiarist of the Falcon is president thanks to PP or Cs, or he is thanks to the sum of Chavistas-communists-anti-system and separatists. That's the dichotomous point.
Therefore, it is worth comparing what Sánchez will have to accept in the two possible options and what consequences it will have for Spain and for the Spanish people that the president is mortgaged by one or the other. If the mortgage came from Unidas Podemos and any of the independentists and ETA supporters, tax increases will be served, tax deductions for companies will be eliminated, inheritances will be brutally robbed, the deficit and debt will skyrocket, the ideological intervention of the government will be verified at all levels and its indoctrination will be a sign of identity, the economy will cool down and we will even enter a recession; the destruction of Spain at the expense of territorial looting will be palpable. However, if the tenant of La Moncloa governed subject to PP or Cs, we Spaniards would face a lesser evil that would place Spain in its true solutions in upcoming elections without too much additional deterioration with respect to the already deteriorated present. I am not putting VOX in the PP or Cs equation for two reasons: the first is that it exerts a repellent effect against jacket-turners and seat-seekers that make political coexistence with the progressives of the red cocoon, the cowards of the blue tern and the garbachos of the orange weather vane unfeasible; the second is that VOX's regenerating political positions are impossible to assume by those who impassively attend legislature after legislature to the progressive degeneration of Spain. A historical situation, without a doubt, that we Spaniards are witnessing and suffering.
