The last missionary to end the Democratic Party

The worst news of the day is not that Sali Berisha is not resigning. He is continuing as a re-founder and will leave as the destroyer of his own party.

The second bad news is that he now calls himself a "missionary."

And missionaries who have lost their mission are more dangerous than enemies who know what they want. Because they don't stop even when they run out of convictions. And they don't give up even when history runs out.

Sali Berisha says he is not resigning because he is on a mission. This sentence is not simply a political stance but a pure revelation of the crisis of a leader who has lost all connection with reality, but not with the vocabulary that revives him in his imagination.

He is no longer in a race to win but in a fight not to leave, and this is no longer idealism but pure revisionism.

In politics, there are figures who leave and remain, because they know when to surrender and how to leave. There are also figures who never leave and remain as shadows over what they have built, taking away its breath and meaning.

Berisha took over the leadership of the Democratic Party again, but instead of reviving it, he is extinguishing it from within. He is not healing the opposition's wound, but deepening it by denying it any chance of being born again.

He is no longer an alternative to power, but an obstacle to any rotation.

He is no longer a figure who carries an era, he is becoming a symbol of a stagnation that lasts not a term, but a generation.

In his latest statement, where he says that "he was wrong to resign and that he will not do it again even now that he has lost," a troubled connection to the idea of ??surrender is revealed.

Berisha is no longer accepting time, defeat, or the society he finds himself in. And when a leader does not give meaning to defeat, he can no longer give direction to victory either.

When he does not recognize the statute, nor the amendment, he turns the party from a political structure into a personal property.

Berisha is the only leader who has created a political force with an idealistic spirit and is leading it towards an end without a single particle of idealism.

He does not destroy the DP to build another, but to preserve himself as the central point of an axis that no longer moves, but has become rigid and only repeats the past.

This is the most painful end that can happen to a party, not because of defeat, but because of the refusal to accept defeat.

The Democratic Party is not being overthrown by its opponent, but by its founder who is not resigning to history.

By turning into a missionary of self-destruction, Berisha is closing himself off from being part of the future. And he is doing the same to the opposition.

He is giving Edi Rama the greatest political protection. Because in the face of an opposition that is stuck in the person of Berisha, the government is always at an advantage.

Rama no longer needs to defeat the DP, because it is defeating itself with the help of the man who started it as freedom and is closing the party as a barricade.

In the end, what is most painful is not simply the lack of surrender, but the lack of a sense of the end. Berisha is not heading towards a political conclusion but towards an unconscious end.

An end that comes without reflection and without surrender. And history does not recognize as missionaries those who destroy themselves and their loved ones, but as symbols of what should have ended with dignity.

Therefore, what is most painful is not only the lack of rotation, but the lack of a human act of leaving with dignity, which would save not only the party, but also Berisha the man.

Because Berisha, at least, had the opportunity to remain a historical figure of a leader who founded the DP, and now he is choosing to become an obstacle to a future and the murderer of his own creation.

He had the chance to preserve a legacy.

Now he is giving the Democratic Party the final blow, killing its history and prolonging a history of political humiliation that belongs to him and is linked only to the name of Sali Ramë Berisha.
