Pedro Sánchez has started a tour that makes you laugh at the Bruce Springsteen Tour 2023. The aim is to prick the bubble of anti-Sanchism in the noses of all the right-wing. But he knows that he must measure the distances very well, lest the expansive wave overturns him. He started with Carlos Alsina in Onda Cero, who did not give him room, nor did he make things easy for him. Sánchez had to go all out, it wasn't enough to mention the presenter by name, make the face of the protagonist of Que boníc que es vier and try to be convincing. He couldn't relax even for a moment. The next on the list was Jordi Évole, with the background that he last interviewed him seven years ago. Then Sánchez handed out tow to his team, to Ibex, to El País and whoever was in front of him. This time he fired at the PP-Vox dance couple and their media friends, "who have spread the term sanchismo based on lies, manipulation and evil".
This evil thing was a new, almost metaphysical concept. But it could also be that Sánchez had taken note of the warning of the evil Al Pacino, when in The Devil's Advocate he tells Keanu Reeves: “Don't get arrogant; no matter how good you are, never let them see you coming. This is the mistake". The president is a man who tries to catch his rivals with the changed step: the last time, when he announced the electoral advance.
In seven years, Évole has gained some weight and Sánchez, a lot of experience. The bar of the interview was not a sixties cafe this time, but a century-old place where the PSOE was founded. Not even the La Sexta program is called the same: it has changed from Salvados to Lo de Évole. On both occasions, the interviewee sought proximity to the audience. There were no comfortable questions, on the contrary. Even when he ran out of breath, he excused himself: "I'm not perfect, Jordi".
And now he wants to go to El hormiguero, by Pablo Motos, to Ana Rosa's program or to La Cope with Carlos Herrera, in what a columnist has described as a Kamikaze Tour. Boldness cannot be denied. Leagues are won on the opposite field, but especially in difficult stadiums. And Sánchez, despite the polls, is convinced that there is a party.
