CGPJ: a betrayal disguised as a success that depends on the word of a liar

Reading certain media in the last few hours, I confess that I have the feeling of being navigating through a parallel universe.

After the betrayal of the People's Party in Brussels and Poland, it is the turn of Spain
The European scam of socialists and those who only pretend not to be socialists

After the agreement reached yesterday by the PP and the PSOE to share the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ), the media related to the PP have begun to ring the bells. Suddenly, they try to present the PSOE to us as a party capable of reaching an agreement to guarantee the independence of Justice, the same PSOE that has been attacking that independence for years, the one that has turned the Constitutional Court into a socialist branch, the same PSOE that has trampled the Spanish Constitution with its amnesty law.

The warnings that some media make in their editorials

However, some media warn of possible risks in relation to this pact: "The great danger does not lie in its content, but in the poor credibility of the head of the Executive, and that is the risk that has personally decided to take on Alberto Núñez Feijóo", states the Abc newspaper in an editorial.

Something similar can be read at the Libertad Digital editorial published yesterday about that agreement: "no matter how much the PP has managed to erase the sectarianism of this government in the agreement, nothing guarantees that it has erased from it a no less characteristic trait of this infamous Executive such as his drive for deceit or lying."

On the same line you write El Debate's editorial on this pact, after presenting it as a victory for Feijóo over Sánchez: "no one should let their guard down knowing the character's trajectory."

A supposed success that depends on the word of a liar

The supposed success of the PP with this pact depends on Sánchez keeping his word: what could go wrong? Thus, the PP and the PSOE will have their respective quotas in the CGPJ, and then It will be seen if Pedro Sánchez and the socialists keep their word in relation to modifying the functioning of the Council to make it more independent.

In this parallel universe in which some are, Pedro Sánchez is a guy who should be given a vote of confidence as if he had never lied, when in reality he has turned deception into his way of doing things politics, reaching unprecedented extremes in our democracy. How many more times does Sánchez have to lie so that the PP understands that they should not trust him? One hundred, two hundred, one thousand?

The PP betrays those it asked to mobilize against Sánchez

What this pact confirms is that the PSOE is now closer to controlling Justice than before, while the PP only has smoke. Because that, smoke, is actually any promise made by a PSOE whose leader is a compulsive liar. With this pact, the only thing that the PP clearly achieves is to whitewash Sánchez at a time when he is scrapping our rule of law . And all this, I'm afraid, in the hope that when the PP governs it can benefit from the control of Justice that they now grant to the PSOE. The same story that has been repeating itself in Spain for decades.

We could believe that the PP has sinned from immaturity by granting that vote of confidence to Pedro Sánchez, but we are not talking about ten or twelve year old children: we are talking about the party with the most votes in Spain, directed by adults and who boast great political experience. What good has all that baggage done to them, if in the end they trust a liar like they did yesterday? What the PP has done is much worse than an act of naivety: it is a betrayal of all those whom it asked to mobilize to stop Sánchez, while the PP negotiated with the PSOE uninterruptedly and during two years (as González Pons revealed yesterday) this disastrous pact to distribute Justice.
