Jordi Wild puts to the test the future president of Spain

BarcelonaThe campaign for the November 29th general election could see a new plot twist. This Friday at first light, Jordi Wild will publish on his social networks the interviews with three candidates for the presidency of the Spanish government. Pedro Sánchez, leader of the PSOE; Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the PP, and Ada Colau, leader of the Broad Front, are the three names that have passed through the microphones of the communicator from Manresa. The one who did not do so was Santiago Abascal, leader of Vox, who, hours before recording the interview, backed out citing discrepancies with the management of the interviews with political candidates, after having appeared on La Revuelta.

The networks were quick to echo Abascal's change of heart, which has received numerous criticisms for his lack of commitment. Some users even called for not voting for his party due to the lack of courage in submitting to the questionnaire of the communicator from Manresa. Ada Colau, head of the list for the Broad Front, has assured that hers was a “very tough interview”, marked by discrepancies with the youtuber. These statements have increased expectations around the conversations and have fueled speculations about the motives that could have led Abascal to renounce the interview. The leader of Vox, on the other hand, left La Revuelta after an interview in which he managed to impose his narrative in front of a visibly agitated David Broncano.

At the moment, both the exact time of publication and the order in which the interviews with the three political leaders will be broadcast are unknown. It is only known that they will be published this Friday, November 13, consecutively and not simultaneously.

Abascal's snub has given the PP the opportunity to capitalize on the impact of the interview among potential right-wing voters. It is true that new formats are not usually the setting where Feijóo feels most comfortable and that a bad interview could harm him. This Thursday, however, they showed confidence in the impact of the conversation. The popular candidate created expectation by posting some photos of himself with Jordi Wild and the party spokesperson, Ester Muñoz, took the opportunity to point out that, unlike others, Feijóo "keeps his word" and, she added, also "has aura".
