to the device

Robles has an ancient look, from another generation, like a piece of furniture forgotten by felipismo that has miraculously survived various movements

My grandmother had a roulette phone on the wall. He was black, heavy and fat, with great headphones crushing his ears. When they called, there was a shrill and fierce ringing tone, a sadistic alarm clock went off, and she grabbed it on the run, always answering the same: “On the phone.” We, her grandchildren, were very amused by that expression, which seemed very distant to us, almost from the time of Graham Bell, and sometimes we called her just to hear her yell “to the phone” as loudly as possible: as if the wife wasn’t sure that this demonic device would work without strong vocal support from him.

I imagine Margarita Robles reacts like this, “on the machine,” with that judicial and military energy that so annoys the Nationalists and perhaps her own government colleagues. Robles has an ancient appearance, from another generation, like a piece of furniture forgotten by felipism that has miraculously survived various movements. I see her sitting in the cabinet, facing the circumstances, making her way through that cloud of blossoming, blond and youthful vice presidents who probably reply with a simple “tell me” which is the most stark and urgent way to start a conversation. Of the possible Pegasus revelations, I don’t care much for big geostrategic deals, but I’d be curious to see how the spy leaders answer the phone. Imagine what a devastating blow to our president’s public image if Chancellor Scholz calls him one day and Sánchez picks up his cell phone and replies, “Hello?”
