Mr Milei’s rival, economy minister Sergio Massa, called him to concede.
Former US President Donald Trump congratulated Mr Milei on his victory, saying he would “Make Argentina Great Again!”.
The election comes at a difficult time for Argentina with rising inflation and an economy in crisis on peoples’ minds.
Mr Milei’s proposals, which included detonating the central bank, won support with voters desperate for change…
Desperate people resort to desperate measures when normal approaches fail. The ruling class forcing our countries to their bidding, against the interests of common people, are the cause for this.
And now they’re going to steal everything you have left with this clown’s help.
There are a small subset of the population that are voting for these clowns for exactly that reason… They are accelerationists. They want the 1% to steal the remaining piece of the pie from the 90% because people won’t fight for change unless they are literally starving.
This is happening world wide; not everywhere but many places, and I wonder if the old style jubilee will be demanded.
I’m not Argentinian
Oh great, that NEVER backfired massively.
I’m not saying it’s wise or right, just a natural consequence
And being anti-disestablisment has never caused or enabled very serious real world problems.
But it’s not even a desperate measure. It’s like, if you had terminal cancer, you wouldn’t drink bleach because you’re willing to try anything.
