Il Travaglio del Fatto Quotidiano on Draghi

Il Travaglio del Fatto Quotidiano on Draghi

As sbrocca il Fatto Quotidiano directed by Marco Travaglio on Mario Draghi

It is a news not of today, nor of yesterday, but even the day before yesterday, the fourth Sunday of Advent in the Christian liturgy: the one in which the last candle of the angels committed to announcing the birth of Jesus is lit. It is in this context who wanted to fit in with a blasphemous cartoon Il Fatto Quotidiano by Marco Travaglio. Who replacing the now very secular Pope Francis – revered on Repubblica in almost all the editorials by the very declared and pleased "friend" Eugenio Scalfari – has served all the intermediate stages, starting from the initial one of death, to confer holiness on an anchor alive and well Mario Draghi.

It is not a question of an unaware homonym but of him: the former president of the European Central Bank, former governor of the Bank of Italy and many other things, Mario Draghi. Which for his great misfortune has entered for some time, rightly or wrongly, in the political chronicles, between background, indiscretions, proposals, wishes and the like, as a possible successor of Giuseppe Conte at Palazzo Chigi. This is, of course, in the event of a crisis, certainly not of the suicide of the Prime Minister, and of the formation of a government, indeed a "governassimo", capable already with its own name of facing all the emergencies born and raised in the hands and feet of the previous , up to the last moment to spare the head of state the inconvenience and anguish of the threatened early elections only halfway through the legislature, or almost. And with many of the outgoing parliamentarians, even those eager for a quick recourse to the polls, but in reality terrified by the awareness of the conjunction, so to speak, of the reduction of seats imposed by the grillini on their allies on duty, and confirmed by special referendum, and the electoral diet obtained with their action in recent years from their bizarre parties, starting with the grillini.

For those who do not like it, and live it day and night as an obsession, Draghi also has the drawback of being able to become an excellent, almost natural candidate for the Quirinale from Prime Minister, to succeed Sergio Mattarella in the presidential elections. will have to carry out in Parliament in February 2022. He could help his successor in Palazzo Chigi to complete the remedial and emergency action launched by his government in the remaining year of the legislature, always without compromising the mandate of the outgoing deputies and senators , especially those with very little possibility of re-nomination and re-election.

Faced with similar prospects, I fear warned by Travaglio and the like, notoriously adoring Conte as the shepherds in front of the cave, already displaced by the recent appointment of Draghi to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, the former president of the European Central Bank has become on the Fatto Quotidiano , complete with a small image suitable for the type of veneration, the patron saint of "masturbators".

I would say that it is a precluded example of the level of information and the formation of public opinion that can be reached behind the somewhat hypocritical screen of satire or irony, especially when it is not possible to connect it to the consultation of the criminal record to liquidate the enemy. or monster on duty. But the world is beautiful because it is varied, as the cartoon of today warns, also of the Fatto Quotidiano .
