I don't know why but many have a habit of not believing Albert Rivera. Therefore, although he was tired of warning that he would not support the PSOE, some voted for him so that Pedro Sánchez did not have to agree with Podemos and the independentistas. It is logical that the president wants to be with other partners. How to put in the Government who says that in Spain there are political prisoners and you mount a counterpoint of the G7? Therefore, as Guillem Martínez explains, Sánchez wanted to call Rivera after knowing the result of 28A. "Let him call," Iván Redondo advised. And Pedro waited like an especially impatient girlfriend. No wonder he's scared.

It is quite unlikely that in the foreseeable elections the distribution of seats will vary the two blocks that have already been formed in Parliament. Pedro will rise. Married up. (In seats because there will be enough abstention). The most faithful, the coffee growers (there are many), will endure with Santi Abascal and Pablo Iglesias. And Citizens voters? The party led by Rivera has already established itself in the right-wing block, although some of its voters could raise an issue. If by (very remote) chance a majority of PP, Cs and VOX add up and win as in April Pablo Casado, would Rivera support a right-wing government?

The most innocent will think so, given that Cs has entered the PP governments in Murcia and especially Madrid. But his support, for example, for the absurd (in the case of the loan to Father Isabel Ayuso) Avalmadrid's commission of inquiry reveals Rivera's strategy. In two years, motions of censorship to later surpass the PP at the autonomous level. The problem is that Albert was counting on "Sanchez and his band" to form Government and that he would have at least two years ahead to consolidate himself as a leader of the Right.

I did not imagine that Sánchez, who is as pragmatic as he, would not want to send with Podemos and that despite the Rivera not! who were shouting at Ferraz, would be waiting for his call.

In the end, the conclusion of the Citizen voter can only be disconcerting. Would Rivera vote for a candidate other than Rivera? It is hard to know. For this reason, in addition to asking him if he will support Sánchez to avoid a Government with Podemos, he should also tell us if he would be able to vote for Casado in case he joined the right. We will believe him. Or not.
