What does Comesola mean?

2 published definitions

Comesola

A backhoe or excavator. This nickname originated in the late 1990s during the construction of major tunnels in Santo Domingo under the PLD party government. Party members were nicknamed 'comesolos' (literally 'those who eat alone', referring to a reputation for keeping government perks to themselves), and the name was eventually applied to the heavy machinery used in their signature infrastructure projects.

They are using two comesolas to build the tunnel on Nunez Avenue.

Comesola

A luxury SUV used by government officials from the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) as a status symbol. The term is derived from the phrase eating alone, a common criticism used to describe members of that party as greedy or unwilling to share government spoils. (In the Dominican Republic, yipeta refers to a high end SUV).

All the people in the PLD are comesolo.
