Meanwhile, the hypothesis of Berlusconi's candidacy for the Quirinale is losing ground, while that of Draghi reappears.

Salvini, however, warns: "The money from the NRP is on loan, which is also why the prime minister is complicated to remove".

Today meeting between Conte, Letta and Speranza.



On the day in which the Quirinale borsino gives the candidacy of Silvio Berlusconi downhill, in more than a group in the Transatlantic, the hypothesis that the Prime Minister Mario Draghi could climb the hill is growing. The Prime Minister's visit to the Speaker of the House, Roberto Fico, also gives a cue to the reconstructions of the parliamentarians. The interview, in the early afternoon, lasted about an hour. It was described by the Montecitorio staff as "the usual institutional meeting", but in these days of rumors, reconstructions and background, in parliamentary circles there are those who have noticed how at home 5 Stelle Fico can play the role of bridge builder within the Movement, since Conte does not appear particularly inclined to the hypothesis of Draghi al Colle. Also in the ranks of the M5s thehypothesis meets more than one resistance, in the belief that leaving Palazzo Chigi corresponds to early elections. The visit to Montecitorio was not the only one of Draghi's day. In the morning, the prime minister met Sergio Mattarella at the Quirinale. At Palazzo Chigi, on the other hand, he saw the Minister of Justice Marta Cartabia and the Minister of Defense, Lorenzo Guerini. And even on the latter face to face the "quirinalizie" readings are not lacking. Guerini is in fact at the helm of the current reformist Pd Base, made up of former Renzians, which is indicated as one of the most favorable to a passage by Draghi to the Quirinale.In the morning, the prime minister met Sergio Mattarella at the Quirinale.

Nothing has been decided, nothing is definitive, but on the Colle it is no longer time for pre-tactic. Matteo Salvini's lunge on Monday seems to have had the desired effect: Silvio Berlusconi, after weeks of intense work in search of votes, for the first time seems to be seriously considering dropping his candidacy. In the same hours Mario Draghi forcefully takes back the limelight returning to weave his web: in the morning the premier sees Sergio Mattarella, then Roberto Fico and Marta Cartabia. where everyone is talking to everyone to understand which is the right escape, the right wheel to follow to reach the finish line.

The center-right internal psychodrama remains to hold the ground 6 days after the first call: the Knight will make the final decision in the next 48 hours, in view of the leaders' summit which will probably be held on Thursday evening. But at the moment it seems that he has realized that he does not have enough votes. A step that if confirmed represents a "reset" that reopens the games towards a scenario full of unknowns on the so-called plan B. As in a hypothetical "Game of the Goose", everything would return to the starting square, with the center-right having the ball in hand, the opportunity, but also the consequent risk, of having to give the cards first. To publicly sanction the failure of the so-called "Squirrel operation", it is precisely one of its protagonists: the collection of votes,reveals Vittorio Sgarbi to "Un Giorno da Pecora", "has objectively stopped". "Yesterday Silvio was quite sad. There must be some psychological concerns, not of the voters, but in the candidate, because he remained in Milan. I believe - continues Sgarbi - that this, how to say, pause depends on the fact that he is thinking if 'is an honorable way out, with a name that pleases him, perhaps Mattarella ". Words that annoy Forza Italia. "Vittorio is not the spokesperson for Forza Italia but he answers to himself, he certainly does not speak in the name of the Cavaliere", replies the national coordinator Antonio Tajani with a grudge. And later, again from the blue party it transpires that Berlusconi has not decided and that he is optimistic.Yesterday Silvio was sad enough.

"I will not disappoint those who have trusted me", would be the message to his followers. Only time will tell if this is a way to calm the waters within the party or if in fact there is still a real window to move forward. In any case, rather than a step backwards, it is better to talk about a possible step to the side, given that the choice not to run in the first person would absolutely not mean that Berlusconi will not make his political weight weigh in the choice of the next head of state. Far from it. And who knows if at that point he will launch the Draghi candidacy, not so well seen by Matteo Salvini to date, if he will make a name within the coalition, or if in the end he will propose the re-election of Mattarella. However that something has set in motion is also confirmed by Giorgia Meloni, ready to do her part to the end. "Even if Berlusconi chooses not to compete and has to give up - he explains to Porta a Porta - I think that in any case the center-right has the right and duty to make a proposal and FdI also intends to do its part. We count 6% but it does not mean that we do not have our proposals to make, I have it in mind ".
