that whimsical airport decision cost Mexico maybe $20 billion US. (Rebuilding NY's LaGuardia from top to bottom cost $8 billion US). Lopez Obrador's culturally and environmentally catastrophic Yucatan train will cost nearly as much as his airport fiasco. PS 12/x — PolitiTweet.org

That $1 billion per year buys Mexico honest elections after two centuries of authoritarianism punctuated by massive violence. Meanwhile, Lopez Obrador's whimsical decision to cancel a half-built new airport for Mexico City and replace it with an remote useless alternative PS11/x — PolitiTweet.org

So don't believe the false claim that Lopez Obrador is a frugal administrator in the spirit of Benito Juarez trying to protect the wallets of the people. For the cost of just one of his reckless mega-projects, Mexico could fund honest elections into the 2040s. PS 13/x — PolitiTweet.org
