AMLO, Sheinbaum, and the legacy and future of Mexico’s Morena | The Marc Steiner Show
The June 2 election of Claudia Sheinbaum made history for two reasons: Sheinbaum will be Mexico’s first woman president ever, and the progressive Morena party will now control the executive and both houses of the national legislature. Morena’s rise to power has brought an enormous historical shift to Mexico, which for more than a century prior was dominated by the conservative parties of the PRI and PAN. Elected on a strong anti-neoliberal platform, outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador set the nationalization of key industries and poverty alleviation as key goals of his administration. Sheinbaum has now been tapped to build upon his legacy and advance the political project of Morena, which seeks to achieve a “Fourth Transformation” of Mexican society. But not all on Mexico’s left are satisfied with Morena, AMLO, or Sheinbaum, pointing out broken promises or perceived failures, and even betrayals, on questions of the environment, Indigenous rights, violence against women, and protection for migrants. Journalists Tamara Pearson and José Luis Granados Ceja join The Marc Steiner Show for a debate on MORENA’s legacy and future.

People vote because we have seen the huge difference from prior political parties AMLO governed more than well, even with all the obstacles, AMLO is making history and most of Mexican will be greatful and ❤️ Him for ever. MORENA’S party is making the 4T
Yes Claudia Sheinbaum will continue 4T and can lower poverty, with the reforms of Justice Department where now the big problem is. Let's go Morena❤
The lady guest seems to think that morena can change things just with a snap of a finger, in the past this kind of thinking has proven to be unsuccessful, real change needs work from all of us , not just the government.
16:30 oh my god the fact that Tamara is not mentioning that the building they took over from was from National Commission of Human rights and the girls who took control of it vandalized and almost completely destroyed all the historical documents for almost a year and a half and then stole money from people in the streets to get money for their "movement" (there’s a video of them stealing even) made them criminals and people in the neighborhood were fed up from the extortion they were given. Tamara is leaving a lot of context out because of her bias and not sounding very professional. To be honest I don’t buy that she voted for Claudia after everything she said.

exactly. Why are they critiquing AMLO, coming from the most rightwing country on earth, the U.S.?!
Tamara is clueless! Over 60% voted MORENA because they saw the results. Yes, we should always expect more, but her introduction is completely off.
This lady is lost very vague on her arguments
"There’s a lot of dissolution? A lot of promises haven’t been kept? " For her to start with that tells me she’s completely bias and ignorant on her perspective. Him in the other hand spot on!

Yeah... that was actually the talking point of the right wing parties this election "people is dissappointed with this goverment"... meanwhile AMLO has an 80% approval rating and his party won on a landslide. That lady is just plainly wrong

She sounds like everything in Mexico is going bad, she doesn’t talk about the good things the new government have done for México. Tamara is lying the government didn’t send the police against the women when they manifested outside of the National Palace. That happens when you listen to latinus or azteca tv. Neta Tamara?

Tamara lies as xochitl does
For some reason, I just feel this Tamara Pearson wasn't debating in good faith. More reason to do my own homework
3:20 she thinks there is desolation and frustration with AMLO… 😅
I don't think I've ever met an Australian woman who's normal 🤣
She is miss informed on a few issues.
Tamara has the same views and sensitivities of the white Mexicans that AMLO has called "progres buenaondita"...people who claim they are leftist but end up spouting the same talking points of the right wing politicians and the mainstream corporate media they control
Seems Tamara is not well informed or at least well prepared to provide an overview of the situation in Mexico. Jose on the other hand is on point.
Thank you good job reporting 👍
Since there was a mention of fairness in pay. I'd like to know what Chinese companies are paying people in Mexico in comparison, (for all the off-shoring they're doing there.)
Fascinating debate!
methinks the criticism of AMLO are probably not legitimate. This is an enormous victory for the world; a leftist (in Mexico!), a woman, an environmental scientist!; sorry Debbie downer
Oooo my tvs Radios Laying this A real News ...
Interesting conversation. One issue that is frustrating to me is the longstanding deteatist attitude toward the drug problem in both the U.S. and Mexico. I believe the truth of the matter is there's too many people making too much money maintaining the status quo, and that a combined effort toward decriminalization, rehabilitation and social disapproval of drug use is the answer.

This lady is lying she's a big liar everything she's saying it's a lie she's a liar
Ooooò my tvs Radios journalists Laying different news ..tv meke a politicos corruptos.
President Lopez obrador 80% aprobo.
This woman is making me sick with what she has to say. I had to stop the vid or else I'd probably vomit.
This woman has no idea what she is talking about. She has no idea why the people of Mexico love AMLO and voted at almost 60% for Claudia Sheinbaum. Starting out her discussion under a cloud when the Mexican people are rejoicing speaks to subjectivity on her part. Who is she? Who does she represent? What is her agenda?
Not voting is the worst decision.
AMLO is certainly neoliberal?
