But the Trump administration is trying its best to help Milei. And that’s the real reason you’re hearing about this $20 billion bailout right now. But it’s probably not going to work:

Seems like it did work. It's too easy to manipulate people.

Didn't Milei followers just won elections? That money was just for bribes and buying votes, right in the open, more hamfisted that infamous 1996 Yeltsin victory in Russia.

Did work to win the election. People saw the dark void in front of them and decided to look away, expecting it will disappear soon.
