One can wish for the best for Mexico while being aware of its history and issues it continues to face. But the fact that Mexican residents appear to be trusting President Sheinbaum to take real action to solve them, and as a person and leader she seems very capable of doing that to the extent of her governmental authority.

I do think Lopez Obrador and Sheinbaum’s policy of frequent mañaneras and answering reporters is great for governmental transparency, even if it will be characterized as daily propaganda.
