Submit the resignation of the president. For re-election, not for the presidency. Ecuadorians must learn to respect the rules, all of them, including the democratic ones. Shouting that the trial demanding the removal of Guillermo Lass is political, to admit that they have votes and “he is leaving because he is leaving”, is not needed, according to docile and irresponsible legislators.

It is hard to imagine why so many people in Ecuador want to be president. There is no doubt that they have a strong ego that drives them to such an aspiration. Many, it is obvious, have no idea what it means to be in government or to work in the public sector. The truth is that the vast majority are aware of the slim chance of success and will certainly sign up to mention it in their meager resumes or Twitter bios.

38.69% of Ecuadorians believe that it is better for Guillermo Lasso to finish his term, according to a survey by Click Report

Guillermo Lasso sought the presidency for several decades. He actively founded and maintained a political party for this purpose. Never a good politician, he also surrounded himself with people who, between flattery and tricks, made him feel comfortable. His personal story is the opposite of that of a divided man, who thinks about the majority of the country that, almost by accident, gave him the privilege of being president. He was chosen to prevent the correista puppet from winning. We who elected him as less bad than Arauz knew that it would be difficult for him to have a good government. Obviously, we did not expect that he would be so short-sighted, nor so blunt when he surrounded himself with friends and former employees, and that he would leave so many technicians to their fate in the thick mud of captured ministries. Rumors of his few readings, but great nonsense, appear to be true.

Social groups will wait for the Constitutional Court’s response to a possible request for the impeachment of Guillermo Lasso

They fear that a few of their ministers will begin to find a way to communicate the work in their areas…

But he is the president-elect. His mandate lasts four years and so far it seems unlikely that he will complete it. He has clever and irresponsible enemies who want his head as a trophy. They know that insecurity will not be solved by changing the president. They fear that several of their ministers are beginning to find a way to communicate the work in their areas and improve their governance.

If Lasso were magnanimous and intelligent, he would disarm the discourse of scavengers who rise and fly over their failure. If he is saved from trial this time, the rest of the period will still be hellish. It would almost be a service to the state to appoint the cross of death to get rid of those men who do so much mischief from the legislature, and who certainly would not return. If the president goes on national television and announces now that he will not run for re-election, much of the political attacks – almost personal vendettas – would begin to disappear. He could concentrate on doing his job well, not as a CEO – which turned out so badly – ​​but as a president who thinks of the country above his ego and personal interests. The bad politicians who are lying to him today to continue with the contracts, candidacy and campaign would certainly get away from him. However, it could win over strong technicians and politicians, who generously sacrifice their peaceful lives to dedicate a year or two to the state, which is politically unthinkable when entering a nearly fallen government.

Could it be that your president can do something as simple as withdraw from re-election? (OR)
