"If there is a possible title for this, it is
total war."
This is how journalist Jorge Lanata summarized the escalation in the government crisis after the letter in which Cristina Kirchner attacked Alberto Fernández and called on him to make changes of ministers.
According to Lanata, the government interprets that, with the letter, the vice president locked up the President.
"He has no choice but to
abide by what he wants or to break definitively,
" said the driver in
TN
.
"Cristina leaves no room for him with the letter.
She reminds him that she was the one who put it
, she detaches herself from the defeat and
blanks her
asking for the resignation of '
Cafierito'
(Santiago Cafiero)," continued Lanata.
And he defined: "
What Cristina is doing with the letter is to publicly squeeze the President
."
Then he analyzed that "in this total war scheme", no one has resigned until now: "Not even Wado (De Pedro) and the government understand that Cristina redoubled the bet."

In addition, he said that both officials did not speak throughout the day.
Then he said that there is a possible question in this case: "
Is Kirchnerism prepared to lose?
"
"
Is it a really democratic party?
Because a really democratic party is prepared to lose. It cannot be that, just after losing an alliance, it disarms," he said.
The PPT host affirmed that this crisis speaks of the fragility with which it was built.
"A democratic party has to be willing to win, but also to lose. It cannot be that it only works by winning," he defined.
Then he criticized the vice president.
"He
continues with the paranoia of press operations.
This goes much further than that, and was not built with press operations. The differences between Cristina and Alberto, when it comes to thinking about Argentina and politics, are evident. And they got bigger and bigger, "he said.
Finally, he said that it is very easy for Cristina to say "that she thought they were going to lose."
"However, she took care to put half the candidates or more.
She also can not detach from the defeat
and say 'well, I thought we were going to die with this story.' I do not think it was like that, she participated in the formation of the lists like nobody, "he assured.
And finally he shot: "
Cristina's attitude that she had nothing to do
with it is not very credible, in the same way that it is not very credible that she had nothing to do with when she said that everything was wrong, because she has been ruling more and more and their influence is growing. "
