Imho. They are not voting based on those facts. They voted for him because he said the things they want to hear. Nothing to do with the truth; you’re not being kept down by billionaires, it is those (wink) people….

No one who thought about it ever thought trump would build that wall and Mexico would pay for it; but people scared of MS-13 being active in their podunk town rallied around him for saying that

Wonder if he's redirecting it all to the army or some other sort of enforcer

I imagine just trying to cut government spending, since the Argentinian government has been printing money like no tomorrow. Their economy is in shambles and inflation is up like 400% or something.

This guy is an absolute nut job but after the establishment left and establishment right failed to fix anything, you can kind of see why he won by 11%.

I wonder wtf will happen and how this isn't the same as huge inflation considering hospitals, schools, police even the electricity and sewer guys aren't going to be working. Right?

This is why you do not leave fascists alive once you've managed to get them out of power.

They are in perpetual crisis since forever. People are getting desperate and voting for anything that's not 'more of the same'.

I'm taking the 3rd one as he doesn't want to get rid of women in the government, he wants to get rid of women in general.
