Love ended between Grillo and Conte
In the meantime, the director of Fatto Quotidiano, Marco Travaglio …
Already weakened in his own right by the daily confrontation imposed by the events between what he was unable to do at Palazzo Chigi with all the polls that also swelled his sails and what his successor is doing instead between the interest and admiration of international interlocutors , including Cardinal Pietro Parolin just pleased with the response obtained in the dispute opened by the Holy See on the slippery issue of homotransphobia, Giuseppe Conte took the classic route from Beppe Grillo. Who practically cut the grass under the feet of the designated head of a refounded 5 Star Movement, even if it was he who designated him one Sunday in February this year in the evocative setting of the remains of the imperial forums, visible from the hotel where the Genoese comedian usually lodges in his Roman forays.
More than rain, as on the windows of the car aboard which Grillo was surprised in the capital by photographers, hail fell on the poor Count, accused by Grillo himself of having mistaken him for “a jerk” – textual, according to the words shout at the pentastellated parliamentarians – providing for their substantial downsizing as a “guarantor” in the statute of the new edition Movement. “It is he – said Grillo di Conte – who needs me”, not having “studied well” the political creature that had been entrusted or promised to him. And it is not even said that you will be able to get to a repair exam, to which the professor was a little urged by the faithful Marco Travaglio, in the Fatto Quotidiano, to escape with a straight back, that is, taking him, at this point, the initiative to break.
Of the two, Travaglio wrote in his editorial commenting on the explosion of Grillo’s anger: “1) The elected and registered members of the 5Stelle vote on the new platform (” one is worth one “) to decide who is the boss and who is the jerk. 2) Conte grills himself for a day, sends everyone to fuck off and goes back to being a lawyer and professor, after four months of volunteering without a salary, returning the 5Stelle to Grillo: and he who founded them, and rightly so him to sink them “. Or to sink what is left of it – wrote Travaglio in another part of his furious article of support for Conte, and of abandonment of the comedian – after having “sent the M5S to the slaughter in the most restorative government ever seen”. Which would of course be that of Draghi, from which recently the former prime minister – “an established civil lawyer and university professor – wrote Travaglio – who in three years became the most popular politician” – has conspicuously distanced himself, “disoriented” by the choices mainly imposed, according to him, by the hated Matteo Salvini. And so conspicuously as to let us imagine a beautiful crisis during the so-called imminent white semester, when the President of the Republic is disarmed for not being able to dissolve the Chambers.
Chance – but only this
– wanted an admirer of Conte like Goffredo Bettini, a sort of adviser given to him by the Democratic Party, to have just confided to the Foglio that he did not see the government of the highly appreciable Draghi destined to last until the elections of 2023. And this – he specified – not because Draghi himself foresees the Quirinale or because the new head of state dissolves the Chambers in advance. He does not just see it, as Travaglio usually says on television to those who host him and asks him for non-meteorological forecasts.
