The scenario is terrifying - and it's right next door. What's needed from Americans now is attention and moral support for Mexico's embattled liberals and democrats. They will protest and resist. Hear them and help them! END — PolitiTweet.org

A criminal insurgency already is taking control of big stretches of the national territory from the legal Mexican state. If the legal state loses it democratic legitimacy after 2024 because Lopez Obrador destroyed election integrity - the future holds even worse chaos. PS16/x — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

The big risk is that the 2024 elections will be close- not only for president, but for Congress and state governorships and legislatures - and that Lopez Obrador's preferred candidates will be seen by many Mexicans as prevailing by fraud, not by votes. PS15/x — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

Lopez Obrador is attacking the integrity of Mexican elections not to save money, but a) to avenge his grudge about losing the 2006 presidential election and b) to open the way to tilting the 2024 election in favor of his preferred successor. PS14/x — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

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

David Frum @davidfrum

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

David Frum @davidfrum

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
