Carlos Bojórquez, the state president of Morena in Yucatán, sparked controversy by referring to Andrés Manuel López Obrador as “the worst president Mexico has ever had” during a public event.
The statement was surprising, coming from a leader of the very same party founded by the former president, and provoked reactions both within and outside of Morena.
The moment went viral on social media, where users debated whether it was a direct criticism, a slip of the tongue, or a politically charged message.
At a political meeting in the municipality of Tizimín, Carlos Bojórquez Urzaiz, president of the Morena State Executive Committee in Yucatán, ignited controversy by referring to former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador as “the worst president Mexico has ever had.”
The moment was captured on video and subsequently shared on digital platforms by users and journalists.
The statement was made during an official meeting organized by Morena’s so-called “People’s Caucus.” When he took the microphone, Bojórquez Urzaiz uttered the phrase during his main speech.
According to recordings of the event, the party leader did not immediately correct the remark and continued addressing the audience.
Those attending the political event, including local legislators and party members, did not voice any complaints or expressions of disapproval regarding the comment. On the contrary, the audience reacted with applause and cheers after the leader’s remark, following the general pattern of the speaker’s remarks.
The event was attended by prominent figures from the Morena party in the state, including Representative Wilmer Monforte Marfil, who served as the host legislator for the assembly in Tizimín.
To date, neither Bojórquez Urzaiz nor the Morena state leadership has issued an official statement on the controversy. The video continues to circulate on platforms such as Facebook and X, where users and media professionals have questioned the party leader’s consistency with his party’s principles.
