Mexican president’s fight with the GOP is a populist sideshow | Opinion
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador gives his regularly scheduled morning press conference, decorated with an image of Francisco "Pancho" Villa, a general in the Mexican Revolution, at the National Palace in Mexico City, Tuesday, Feb. 28, 2023. Nationalism is a powerful tool, and Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador knows it.
But it is also a sideshow that distracts from impending issues while taking a page from the Latin American populist playbook that portrays the U.S. as the enemy, something impossible to digest from a 21st century perspective, especially when both countries’ economies are intertwined. López Obrador went as far as announcing an information campaign targeting Hispanics that advises them not to vote for the Republican Party. Rightly so, GOP leaders see this as election meddling by a foreign nation. This only gives ammunition to the most extreme factions in the GOP, while the real issue, the fentanyl crisis, gets overshadowed by these loud voices.
