It can always get worse, you know?

The article discusses a recurring issue within the Portuguese right, particularly the PSD and AD, where internal dissent emerges whenever they gain power. Unlike the Socialist Party, which tends to present a united front, the right often engages in self-sabotage, undermining its leaders and policies. Historical examples illustrate this pattern, including criticism of Cavaco Silva and internal conflicts during various administrations. The author highlights the current situation under Luís Montenegro, noting a lack of support for the government's stance against illegal occupations. The piece argues that many on the right fail to recognize the majority's opposition to such actions and warns against the dangers of internal division, suggesting that the political landscape could worsen if this trend continues.
