D’Alema, Casini and the virus killers

D'Alema, Casini and the virus killers

The Corriere della Sera interview with Massimo D'Alema read by Francesco Damato

Not if General Figliuolo has hurt it either in civilian dress, if he ever wears one, or in full uniform, with those 27 ribbons that a reporter counted on him, making all his colleagues distracted by medals to fix a hole, nor in that camouflage outfit that he seems to prefer when traveling as an extraordinary commissioner to the pandemic, and in my opinion he does it more clumsy than martial, giving him a good part of the wickedness that is written or painted against him. Not if you take offense, I repeat, General Son , but even more of him, the certainty that this damn Covid, for once with a capital, is not invincible, and that will go the way that I deserve gave it a exclusive of the well-informed Tommaso Labate on Corriere della Sera today. To which Massimo D'Alema confirmed that he tested positive for a check and that he was cured in his own way, that is, hastily.

"Yup. I was lucky – said the former Prime Minister commendably trying not to take credit for it but to leave it all to chance or, as we will see, to the gullibility of the monster – because I had a very low viral load. I remained in isolation, I treated myself with anti-inflammatories and after two weeks I tested negative ”. Not like that young veteran of Parliament who is Pier Ferdinando Casini, forced to hospitalize in the Spallanzani hospital without losing even a pound of weight and getting out in time so as not to miss a television lounge – I say one – in which to tell about his glorious recovery. Which – I bet a pizza with anyone who wants to challenge me – will not prevent him from entering in one way or another, even in passing, in the chronicles of the umpteenth edition of the race at the Quirinale.

D'Alema, who to those chronicles – I bet on this too – will not even look out of his way, also said that he had made "the reservation" of the vaccine for next week without trying to override anyone, following "the instructions intended for my age group from the Lazio region, which among other things – he added, so as not to lose the habit of giving points or report cards – is moving very well ". And he has set a good example by ensuring that he will inject whatever vial, of whatever brand, he happens to receive. He will remain so far away even from those Chinese fans who are a bit fake – it seems – that he helped to get to Italy by finding, thanks to his "good international relations", the right association to pay for everything to the order, and not to the reception. Thus the money was practically advanced to the "Italian government", which was obliged to pay only on delivery. The curiosity attributed by some newspaper to the magistrates who would like to hear it is therefore useless.

This Covid, again with a capital letter, of my boots tried – just think – to attack even someone like D'Alema, who knocked out all those who tried to scrape it: starting with Matteo Renzi. Basically – given the size of his latest political creature and the defeats that preceded it, from the constitutional referendum of 2016 to the political elections of 2018 – the war on D'Alema has brought more bad luck than anything else.
