Z editoriálu aktuálního Reflexu: Premiér republiky Andrej Babiš touží být králem. A to ne jen tak ledajakým monarchou, ale přímo Karlem IV. Hovoří pro to celá řada faktorů, které bych si s vámi dovolil nasdílet. Protože tohle prostě nemůže být náhoda. Oba formovalo od mládí frankofonní prostředí. Karla vychovala Francie, Babiše pak Maroko a Švýcarsko. Oba si změnili jméno. Z Václava se v roce 1323 stal Karel. Z Babiše se v roce 1982 stal Bureš. Zatímco Karel měl čtyři manželky, Babiš stihl zatím jen dvě. Pracovně se ale obklopuje čtyřmi důležitými ženami – šéfkou Úřadu vlády ČR Tünde Bartha, správkyní sociálních sítí Anetou Zicklerovou, poradkyní pro svobodu slova s královským platem Natálií Vachatovou a ministryní financí Alenou Schillerovou. A teď trochu premiérovy oblíbené numerologie. Když Česko slavilo v roce 2016 sedm set let od narození českého panovníka, získal Andrej Babiš cenu pro ministra financí roku. Českým králem byl Karel korunován 2. září, tedy ve stejný den, kdy má Babiš narozeniny. Karel IV. zemřel ve věku 62 let a Andrej Babiš se v 63 letech stal premiérem. Nemůže být pochyb o tom, že premiér je prostě pokračovatelem lucemburského odkazu. Ta podobnost pak není jen v číslech a životní cestě, ale hlavně v činech. Tady můžeme najít vysvětlení pro častou Babišovu chaotičnost. Jenže co připadá neinformovanému pozorovateli jako série nesouvisejících kroků, to je pro člověka obeznámeného s podobností s Karlem IV. řada naprosto logických událostí. Čapí hnízdo je novodobým Karlštejnem. Pravidelná nedělní hlášení a dřívější pořad Čau lidi! má ve 14. století ekvivalent jménem Vita Caroli, tedy Karlovy vlastnoručně psané biografie. Co jiného je plánování vládní čtvrti v Letňanech než jasná analogie k budování Nového Města pražského? Rubíny svatováclavské koruny závistivě blednou před sytě červenou kšiltovkou s nápisem Silné Česko. Celý text níže ⬇️ #Babiš #KarelIV #politika
