“Because I never vote for Ventura. These are pre-political reasons”

And also José Sócrates, in a story that the PS still does not admit today. In the second round of the presidential elections, there are no doubts.

He hesitated between António José Seguro and João Cotrim de Figueiredo, but voted for Cotrim.

João Miguel Tavares chose Cotrim in the first round of the presidential elections because Seguro seemed to be comfortable winning in the first round.

Therefore, feel like one of the defeated on the night of January 18th, because I wanted to see Cotrim in the second round, not André Ventura.

And, regarding the warnings that are left about the president of Chega, João Miguel himself left a warning: “You have to be very careful: to this day, Ventura has never said he wanted to end democracy. He talks about three Salazars, he says deeply abject things, but extending, spreading this idea of ​​being anti-democratic is dangerous.”

The political commentator once again showed what he is against the red lineswhich are a “political error”, he considers.

And he argues that, in the next three weeks, until the second round of the presidential elections, the right should have the opportunity to be heard by the left“in a way that – you get the idea – never is”.

“Because this thing of always shouting: ‘the end of democracy is coming, fascism is coming’ – it’s very boring. And because many people have heard this conversation, many times, long before, including during the time of the ‘fascist’ Passos Coelho”, he recalled.

Are you aware that André Ventura is a “threat to the regimethe Constitution, liberal democracy as we have it; a threat like never before.”

“But always shouting about this has a problem for those deeply dissatisfied with the PS: it is a party that continues to fail to reflect on what happened with Joseph Socrates. It was a prime minister who called into question the foundations of a regime, in a way that André Ventura may have wanted – but he still didn’t have the power to do so”.

João Miguel Tavares reinforces that José Sócrates had the complicity of the PS in their alleged attempts to control various sectors of society. “It’s impossible not to have had it. But, to this day, the PS does not admit that”.

In the second round, there is no doubt: vote Safe. Because the other candidate isn’t even an option: “I will never in my life vote for André Ventura. Because they are pre-political reasonscome before politics: even when Ventura is right, he always puts a layer of cruelty e evil, which goes against my principles. Principles that come before politics.”

Now about António José Safe, João Miguel Tavares considers that “people recognized independence e courage – and that courage existed. It was extremely skillful in managing your application”, he analyzed.
