The day after the green light that the PD councilors in the commission gave to their President, Elly Schlein also received the mockery of Marco Travaglio. With the Fatto Quotidiano headline on the front page: De Luca 1-Schlein 0. An eloquent result, given that the dem secretary had asked the dem council group in Campania to vote against the modification of the statute which effectively eliminates the two mandates made by the Governor, and they didn’t care. The Nazarene also receives criticism from the opposition, with Fulvio Martusciello, regional coordinator of Forza Italia predicting: «De Luca will end up with the third pole». The Italian representative believes that the former mayor of Salerno is unable to overcome the opposition of his secretary, and is forced to compete only with the support expressed openly by Italia Viva. The supporters of the former mayor of Salerno are actually convinced of another scheme. That is, an Elly Schlein so weakened by the blows that she could still get, that she arrives exhausted on the eve of the vote in Campania. And to live quietly, or not to open another chasm, forced to give the green light to the President, who has also demonstrated that he has the majority of the regional Democratic Party on his side. However, a very narrow passage for both the “Sceriffo” and his opponent from the Nazarene.
De Luca may lose his very complicated arm wrestling, but, to put it like “Jep Gambardella”, he would still have the strength to “make the parties fail”. Or rather to lead astray and determine the defeat of the candidates “blessed” by the Misiani-Sarracino-Ruotolo trio. Whether they are Roberto Fico, the former president of the Chamber looking for a new job or Gaetano Manfredi, the mayor of Naples, a close friend of his former prime minister, Giuseppe Conte. A situation that is very clear to Fratelli d’Italia who attacks with a hard face. Like the group leader in the Chamber Tommaso Foti who jokes: «The issue shows us a two-faced Democratic Party, while its parliamentarians voted against the third mandate, the regional councilors vote in favor. Should we therefore believe that there is a PD in Rome and a PD in Naples? Could it be a form of differentiated autonomy in Schlein’s style?”.
The coordinator of FdI of Naples Michele Schiano Di Visconti was also mocking: «No surprise, Elly Schlein is sensationally disavowed by the regional councilors of the Democratic Party who are lining up for De Luca’s third mandate and cheerfully don’t care about the indications of the national secretary». The definitive approval of the device created by the President to allow him another sprint as Presidential Candidate is expected tomorrow in the hall of the Regional Council. Irony of fate: De Luca’s destiny will be fulfilled on the same day that the United States chooses its President. The de facto green light for the third term is quite obvious, after the decision of the Dem councilors not to follow the instructions of their secretary. Then a completely political game will open for the Governor, keeping an eye on the moves of the Government which could appeal to annul the regional law. And at the same time the progressive weakening of Elly Schlein. Like a boiling “frog”.

**Interview with Political Analyst Maria Rossi on Elly Schlein’s Stance Against De Luca’s Third Term**
**Interviewer:** Welcome, Maria. Let’s dive into the recent political developments surrounding Elly Schlein and her position on Vincenzo De Luca’s potential third term. What are your thoughts on her statement, “Never a third term”?
**Maria Rossi:** Thank you for having me. Schlein’s stance is indeed significant. By opposing De Luca, she is attempting to position the Democratic Party (PD) as a reformist force, emphasizing the need for renewal within leadership. This move can resonate well with voters looking for change, especially after long-standing incumbencies.
**Interviewer:** However, the internal dynamics within the PD seem quite complex. Despite her push, many local councilors voted in favor of De Luca’s third term. How does this affect her leadership?
**Maria Rossi:** It’s a double-edged sword. On one hand, this internal division could undermine her authority, causing skepticism about her control over the party. On the other hand, it might solidify her position as a progressive leader willing to stand up against the status quo. The challenge will be whether she can unify the party behind her vision.
**Interviewer:** We’ve seen criticism from various corners, including Marco Travaglio’s mockery of Schlein and comments from Forza Italia’s Fulvio Martusciello. How do these criticisms impact her standing?
**Maria Rossi:** Criticism from influential figures can be detrimental, especially if it gains traction among media and voters. It may reinforce the narrative that she is losing her grip. Nonetheless, such opposition also presents an opportunity for Schlein to rally her supporters and position herself as a champion against the establishment. It’s a critical moment for her leadership.
**Interviewer:** Given these challenges, what do you think Schlein needs to do to strengthen her position ahead of the upcoming regional elections?
**Maria Rossi:** Schlein must demonstrate that she can build a cohesive strategy that aligns the party’s national vision with local interests. Engaging directly with constituents and showcasing clear policies will be vital. Moreover, fostering unity within the party and addressing the concerns of those pro-De Luca can help mitigate the internal discord.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Maria, for your insights. It seems Schlein has both challenges and opportunities ahead as she navigates these political waters in Campania.
**Maria Rossi:** Absolutely. It will be intriguing to see how this unfolds in the coming weeks. Thank you for having me!
