«The PT has always been with Morena, in all elections, while the people from the Verde, on the other hand, have just arrived,» he said on Wednesday evening under the gaze of Carlos Puente, Arturo Escobar, and Senator Manuel Velasco. He added this as Sheinbaum left the meeting after twenty minutes of questioning her allies. The war in the Middle East, as revealed by LPO, has become a distressing thermometer for the ruling party, either because if Trump wins, he will seek to operate in Mexico, or if he fails, he could also use the war against the narco as a striking blow for his electorate. When the president withdrew from the Wednesday night meeting, everything was left in the hands of Rosa Icela Rodríguez. «What is the idea of dividing us at this moment? Why this situation when the United States threatens us with intervention?» one of the attendees told this newsroom. The most acute point of the meeting was the agenda of Plan B, which initially would begin with simple majority votes, but later, the president requested reforms that require a constitutional change. There, the idea of a consultation was proposed. This motivated a long dispute between Anaya and former minister Arturo Zaldívar, who is enjoying that Pablo Gómez has left the scene, hit by the adverse vote. Anaya also suggested that the percentage that makes these exercises binding should be lowered, but they told him that could be a complex boomerang: the opposition, at some point, could achieve in a consultation what it does not achieve in Congress. Having managed to get only one deputy from his party to vote with the Government has given him a renewed centrality in a political party where his departure has been talked about for at least two years. The Wednesday night conclave in the National Palace between Claudia Sheinbaum and the leadership of the Verde and the PT had tense moments and a warning from Alberto Anaya: his party could not only hinder the so-called Plan B but also, in recent hours, talks have accelerated for the PT to present its own candidates in at least 10 of the states in dispute in 2027. Anaya is very emboldened since the sinking of the reform last Tuesday. Many doubts appeared in the coalition about who should call the citizens, whether Morena or its allies.
