Then the weak President probably shouldn't have used article 49.3 provisions to pass the unpopular law. Considering that the outcome of this decision was obvious and that they were warned specifically that this would happen, I'd say the President and his Prime Minister created this crisis.
The people are simply unwilling to let this mismanagement slide.
- srge 4y agoThe executive order (49.3) is constitutionally legal. The country needs reforms. If you don’t agree vote accordingly at the next elections.
- akira2501 4y agoThe people famously love technicalities. Reforms that are not democratic will be met with protest. If you push laws through against the will of the people then expect riots. Point is.. no one is "taking advantage" of the President. It's entirely self-inflicted.
- srge 4y agoExactly. When did we decide to distrust politicians when they are destroying their own popularity in order to reform the country ?
- akira2501 4y agoThat has always been the case. You're approaching this backwards, probably because you're hoping it will allow you to continue to be dismissive without having to put forward an argument of merit based upon the facts. You're also missing the obvious. He could have just retired if he believed this so strongly yet was unable to _convince_ the legislature to pass the law. He clearly wants the job more than he wants his popularity. That is a person who cannot be trusted. This is obvious.
