Reborn American Giants

Chapter 301 Launch 2

Robert Dabzon is a meticulous man. His origins are not high. He is just the son of an ordinary farmer in the northern state of Potrero Tavra, Cabañas province.

The serious and gloomy mountains there do not allow for such light-hearted banter, but his dedication and hard work are recognized by everyone who knows him, including his enemies.

He also had a short period of "military" experience. During the period of Romero's military government, Robert Dabzon participated in the "Assassination Squad", a military organization organized by the far-right political faction.

Just by listening to the name, you can tell what this paramilitary organization does. Its main task is to carry out a series of assassination missions, and its targets are politicians who are designated as left-wing politicians by the far-right political factions, including the then president of the Catholic Church in El Salvador.

The bishop fought for political rights for the poor and disadvantaged while criticizing Archbishop Oscar Romero for supporting right-wing governments in the United States.

Although this period of time was short, it allowed him to develop an iron-blooded and self-disciplined character.

After the assassination squad was forcibly disbanded by the government, Robert Dabzon turned to politics and joined the Nationalist Republican Alliance. He was quickly favored by the supporters of the party, the plantation oligarchs, and became the Nationalist Republican Alliance.

Chairman, the biggest rival of the Christian Democratic Party.

Ministers in the government cabinet discussed privately and believed that he was a qualified leader of the opposition party. In public, they tried their best to keep him in this position that suited him well.

Sometimes the pressure he puts on himself seems to be more and greater than what his political opponents put on him...

Recently, many media outlets stated that the opposition party narrowly lost the National Assembly election last year and is facing a presidential election recently. Under such circumstances, his party has become increasingly restless, and his position as party leader has also been affected.

threaten.

These "stories" are vague, lack real materials, and are somewhat contradictory when faced with hard situations.

However, "News Photo" seems to be well versed in the mysteries of this. It quoted an unnamed "senior party official" and suggested that the position of party leader is not reserved for poor losers.

Of course, this is just a complaint, and no one can say that "News Photo" is spreading rumors.

However, no one can tell about political matters. Robert knew very clearly that everyone was ambitious to become a leader, and someone must be doing some small tricks secretly.

If it were normal times, Robert would not take these worldly itches to heart at all, but who makes this not an ordinary moment.

Facing the Christian Democratic Party, his biggest opponent, he must unite the entire nationalist republican alliance to fight against the enemy together, and not waste any energy on internal friction and endless friction.

Therefore, he appeared on the famous "Weekend Watch", a popular current affairs program, where a politician talked to three top journalists, trying to clear up the party's name over the recent rumors, and get all the members of the Nationalist Republican Alliance to unite and continue

Support yourself.

The program lasts for forty minutes, and more than half of it has passed now. It has been a bit uneventful, even boring.

Robert Dabzon's skillful skills and superhuman patience blocked the questions thrown by the host Fred Ignaz Woods one by one, avoiding every sharp question.

"It seems that even if Cesar is not here, I still do a pretty good job," Robert thought to himself. For some reason, Buniseño did not show up today. "Let's go and see this old guy after the show is finished."

So Robert cheered up and moved forward with the conversation.

He said that it was impossible to determine who in the party was opposed to him. The implication was that the outside media was simply making things up out of thin air and slandering him wantonly.

And what deserves the most attention is not these secretive and shady conspiracies, but the economic recession caused by the policies implemented by the government under the leadership of Jose, and of course the civil war. This war caused by different political ideas has already

It has been going on for several years. The country's economy has been severely damaged and the people are in great distress. However, Chairman Jose, as the top leader of the ruling party, cannot come up with a way to solve this problem. No one can see a solution in the short term.

The possibility of ending the war must continue to be endured.

So the person whose position is really in jeopardy is not him, but our Chairman Jose.

He said that the media had exaggerated his troubles, added fuel to the fire, and told the story in a subtle way. However, "Can you name any person who provided you with news clues? Any one," Robert turned his attention to the president of "News Photo"

Editor Jean Drew, he was the first to release the news, and it was also the most exaggerated and energetic thing he wrote.

The editor-in-chief was obviously not used to being "fired on" by others, so he quickly changed the topic of discussion.

There were still five minutes left before the end, and the discussion seemed to be stuck in a muddy ground. The producer on the side kept winking at the host Fred Ignaz Woods and tapping his wrist.

watch case, signaling him to bring up some more

For offensive topics, their job is to use very spicy questions and "bleed" someone from time to time, so as to arouse the audience's interest and maintain ratings. And the leader of the opposition party is a guest on their program, this opportunity can

Can't miss it.

Obviously, Fred, as a seasoned host, received the hint from the program producer. He looked at Robert Dabson who was in a happy mood and prepared to ask his carefully prepared questions: Shortly before the program started, a strange man

The package was delivered to him, and the contents inside made Fred, who thought he was well-informed, skip two beats of his heart. This was simply a 500kg aerial bomb, enough to kill the leader of the opposition party sitting opposite him at the moment.

"Shattered to pieces".

But who cares about this? The viewers of the show don't care who lives and who dies. The only thing they care about is whether the topic is hot enough and the issue is exciting enough. What they want to see is that the big shots in Fred's life are...

I was speechless and embarrassed in front of the questions posed.

"Mr. Robert, please allow me to use the last moment to ask a more personal question," Fred fiddled with a yellow manila bag in his left hand, "Are you a Catholic?"

Robert showed a sage look and said nothing, just smiled and nodded.

"I don't know if you have heard the teaching that the church has always reiterated, that is, "homosexuality is a sin." So, Congressman Robert, do you agree that homosexuality is a fatal evil?"

Faced with this question, Robert on the opposite side hesitated for a rare moment, and then he replied solemnly: "I think now is not the time to discuss such a complicated topic. After all, this issue is difficult to explain, and it involves the church.

, after all, we are discussing current political issues."

"But no matter what, this topic is still meaningful, right?" Ha, he panicked, and Fred showed a victorious smile, "And it's very simple, you just need to answer whether you agree or disagree."

Robert was thinking quickly in his mind. Although he accepted the guidance of the Catholic Church, determined to help others, and moved forward courageously, establishing a clear creed in life and laying the foundation for his political beliefs, this did not mean that he had no understanding of all the teachings of the Catholic Church.

Accept it all without any doubt.

In his heart, he actually does not think homosexuality is such a big sin, nor does he think it is a fatal evil like Fred asked.

But on the one hand, there are millions of Catholics across the country, and on the other hand, they are slightly violating their own inner wishes. Even elementary school students can do this kind of calculation.

His thinking was regarded as hesitation and withdrawal by the host, so the question continued, "...Then let me ask another way, do you think this guidance of the church is wrong?"

There was a big hole in this question, and Robert was not allowed to make any hesitations or mistakes.

So in this live TV broadcast in front of the entire San Salvador citizens, Robert had to answer simply, "No, I don't think the church's guidance is wrong..."

"Very good then," Fred interrupted his next words, and he turned around to face the camera, "audience friends can see that Senator Robert is against homosexuality, so next, I will tell the audience

We showed some photos and asked Mr. Robert to explain why his long-time best friend, inseparable press secretary and political adviser, Mr. Buniseño Cesar, concealed his sexual orientation from the public..."

Next, Robert Dabson knew nothing and didn't want to answer anything. He only saw that the program staff used a slide show to enlarge a photo and put it on the curtain wall behind him.

The person above is his long-time best friend, his most trusted advisor, and his external spokesperson.

His head was on the shoulder of a young man, with a happy smile on his face. Considering the location where they were - on a bed in a room, naked, anyone with a little intelligence would understand what was going on.

Robert Dabzon was silent at first, and then became furious. He was not angry at Buniseño for deceiving him, but was angry at the group of people in front of him. Just to deal with him, he dragged Cesar out.

, letting him be exposed naked and without dignity in front of the people of the entire country is like whipping a corpse. Robert cannot accept that Buniseño faces such a cruel fate. He is just an innocent victim.

Implicated, the real target of these people should be directed at him.

"How could they...how dare they...," he tried to suppress his anger, looking at Fred with eyes that seemed to be burning with a raging fire.

But it was too late for him to defend Cesar, his old friend.

It was too late. The closing credits had already been typed and the theme song was floating in the studio. Millions of viewers had to pay close attention to hear Fred's closing words clearly. "Thank you, Congressman Robert. I'm afraid.

We don't have time, these forty minutes have been really enjoyable." He smiled, "Thank you for your cooperation."
