Romano Prodi is the king of the anti-Meloni gnawers followed by Lilli Gruber

Memorable television performance yesterday by Romano Prodi in Lilli Gruber's living room on La7 "interviewed" by Massimo Giannini, who wrote a book with the former Prime Minister… I Graffi di Damato
Fantastic. Giorgia Meloni returned to amaze her friends and even more so her adversaries by obtaining the release of the Italian journalist Cecilia Sala from the Iranian regime by personally welcoming her at Ciampino airport. The prime minister has been able to weave a web of international relations that further accredit her even beyond Europe, where she had also been represented as isolated.
Here, only the opposition remains isolated, forced to applaud the government in the parliamentary halls, and not only to generically thank "all those who contributed" to resolving in less than a month an international intrigue aggravated by the transition underway between the president the outgoing and incoming United States. A step that did not prevent Meloni from flying to the president-elect, Donald Trump, without waiting for his inauguration and, at the same time, compromising relations with President Joe Biden who is still in office, and who is also arriving in Rome for his latest farewell visits on the two banks of the Tiber.
The greatest effort of ease in this consoling page for Italy was perhaps that of Matteo Renzi. He rushed at 11.39 yesterday to communicate through X of the hated Elon Musk, as soon as the release of Cecilia Sala already on her way home was announced from Palazzo Chigi, his "thanks to the government, to the services, to the family". And the participation in a celebration of "the whole country, without distinctions and controversies". Which, however, he had raised by demanding "tables" with all the oppositions, including his own, which Meloni would have escaped with an even greater protagonism than hers when he happened to be Prime Minister. And to get involved in an extremely personalized, and therefore lost, referendum on an innocent constitutional reform. Which also deserved to be approved.
The two-time former Prime Minister and even former President of the European Commission, Romano Prodi, competed with Renzi in terms of ease. Who, revered guest of Lilli Gruber on Otto e mezzo , on La 7, returned to calling Meloni "obedient" to Trump, while acknowledging the political success of Cecilia Sala's release. Or the “Trump card” suggested to him, again in Gruber's living room, by Massimo Giannini. A Trump card translated by the former ex into "Trojan horse". In which Trump and his ilk would have slipped in to destroy Europe. The one at Gruber's also seemed like a séance. But it wasn't due to a lack of spirits, who in the meantime were distracted by "Meloni's victory". Who have resigned themselves to recognizing in the headline of their front page also those of Domani , Carlo De Benedetti's super opposition newspaper.
