An ambiguous phrase, very ambiguous, pronounced by Silvia Salis. A phrase that went viral and is now making the rounds on social media.

It remains to be understood what the actual meaning attributed by Salis to her words was. Also because, curiously, at the same time Elly Schlein reached the record for duration at the helm of the Democratic Party. A coincidence that further fuels jokes about the case and recalls the famous “delicatissima” by Christian De Sica.
