How long will they let him live?

A LONG time, apparently. He's useful.

LOL, of course...in my late night freezing my brain just swapped them out!

Sadly, probably not bad enough yet for Venezuela...which makes me feel even less sanguine about this kind of thing...

LOL! Well, I was freeping right before I went to bed early for an early rise, and conflated Venezuela and Argentina in my brain, but your post made me at least laugh about it!

And how true...

Just watched his Tucker interview.
I;d vote for the jsu because of one sentence,
“ just because you have a need, doesn’t make it a right”
My Spanish sucks but that is the gist of it.
That is the fundamental difference between Democrats and Americans. Not every dreamed up need is a right.

Freaking lack of edit
“I;d vote for the jsu because of one sentence,”
should read
I’d vote for him just because of one sentence”

If somebody else has to give up something for you to have it, it’s not a Right.

Or.....how long before the US neocons send Victoria Nuland to Argentina to start the process of a color revolution or coup?

You just know they will do it. He should ban these people from his country.

This "fiery right-wing populist" would have been seen as a tranformative liberal leader just 60 years ago.

Now it is the Left that represents "The Man" and the Right that represents populism, free thinking, freedom, power to the people, and all that.

Yes, all those 1960s hippies have grown up to become autocratic guardians of the establishment, clamoring for more government control over our lives and proponents of "clampdowns" on all those who would resist.

How things have changed!

Not just “right wing.” “Far right wing” according to most of the media.

Central bankers and Marxists?

Everyone has to see this video of Milei of him calling out the various worthless Ministries of this and that he will disband.

I’ve been to Argentina. It’s a beautiful country with a lot of potential and friendly people. Hope this new guy can get them out of the economic mess they’re in. The Argentine peso is now worth one quarter of a US penny. And I thought inflation under Biden was bad!
