Colombia, which is America's strongest ally, has always had the most level-headed voters in the region.
They've had two conservative parties, sometimes at once, and voters there have always rejected the crazy left, which in their case, is a Castro-grade revolutionary crazy grade of left, with Bill Ayers-types on steroids. They did, after all, fight a 60-year war against Marxist narcoterrorists, with only a few university wokesters defending them.
So it was shocking news that on Sunday, Colombians went and elected just about the worst leftist of this stripe, a former M-19 narcoguerrilla named Gustavo Petro, president, turning one of the most conservative countries in the region to the far left for the first time. The freak belonged to the M-19 narcoterrorist outfit that operated in the 1980s and 1990s, aligning itself at some point with Pablo Escobar himself. That group blew up the Colombian Supreme Court -- with all the justices in it -- and a huge loss of life.
No normal person would join a detested group like that. After that, Petro went on to whoop it up with Hugo Chavez as the best of radical leftist allies, and like Chesa Boudin, became "an advisor" to the late, unlamented, Venezuelan thug. Petro and Chavez go way back, as this tweet suggests:

Venezuela wasn't a warning to Petro, it was the playbook.
After that, he became a lousy blue-city mayor of Bogota for a stretch, reducing the quality of life same as is seen in blue cities here. He had to have had some kinds of political skills, given his record both as a reviled leftist terrorist and a crappy mayor.

Yeah, they’ll believe that!
LOL! They’ll just move here where the stuff really is free. For them. Costing us a 💩 load though.
Well, this means hordes of Columbians will be fleeing that country in a couple years.
Bkmk
What brand of vote tallying equipment was used in this election?
Ummm…asking the obvious:
Did they really???
The same way we elected Retardo and the Slut to our highest offices. The communist/democrats stuffed the ballot boxes across this great country with millions of votes.
How could the voters be so stupid? They just elected a far-left Hugo Chavez-adoring freak named Gustavo Petro for president
The American public doesn’t appear to be any smarter
The “Dominion” vote tabulators never make mistakes.
It’s all planned ahead.
Yeah, prolly most people didn’t vote.
MASSIVE CHEATING?????
...or did they?
