If someone from Guinardó had said and repeated what they bomb you, let them bomb you, they would be ordinary and rude. On the other hand, if a gentleman from Barcelona says it and repeats it, then it is a show of elegance and savoir faire...
Well no The rampage of Xavier Trias on Saturday afternoon when he was dismounted from a horse he thought was the winner does not justify sending anyone to punch. A politician must know how to accept defeat, no matter how much his shirt has been lifted and even if he feels like an outsider in this new political culture. Even so, with more reason.
I leave it here noted as one of the three errors of Trias since Saturday. From the expression can be inferred not only a certain class arrogance, but the idea that you really believe that only you can take care of the governance of a city or a country, of the whole world.
Trias' mistake number two, despite the fact that due to its importance it should be number one, was to sign and publicize an agreement with ERC ahead of time. A gesture towards I don't know which gallery - not his, by the way - which was unnecessary, because it didn't give him any advantage to be invested in the first round. There he hit a snag, because he activated all the springs of the PP and the thing ended for him like the rosary of the dawn.
If something has always characterized him, it is that Xavier Trias is what he seems. Supporter of fronts? never It is only necessary to review his political career at CiU, also as mayor that he was and now as a candidate to conclude that he has never been pro-independence. Now, even if his phrase and his face make a fortune and are used for ANC merchandising, Trias will remain what he seems.
This brings me to the third mistake, rather a future one. Trias would do well to try to avoid that his "let them bomb you" end up being manipulated by the most exalted sectors of Junts, with the sole aim of making them more efficient according to which frontist actions. T-shirts were also printed with Quim Torra's "squeeze, squeeze". Losing the mayor's office does not mean losing one's memory.
