I bet one of the first things he will do is to change the term limits to infinity.Economically stable countries can survive a few years of a nutjob in charge. Good luck Argentina!

Cross between a young Chris Farley and the Mexico NT managerThat guy looks like a maniac.
He would siiuuuuuuu for peaceCR7 wouldn't have allowed this in Portugal.

On the second video he is right that the right has won the cultural war, or more specifically the ideological war. And that has happened since the 80s. So anytime I see a neoliberal claiming about being anti establishment and talking about radical ideas, this someone forgets that there is nothing anti establishing nor radical about neoliberalism.Tweet

You'd get very good value for your money (I think). Their currency is shit. Steak and wine in Rosario sounds amazing.Bloody hell.
Who was it asking for advice about a holiday in South America? Should probably scratch Argentina off his list.
That all depends on how you define “the right”. The likes of this guy and Trump are very different to the more centrist political parties who were successful 20 or 30 years before them. The battle they’re winning is fought almost entirely online and facilitated by lies and misinformation spread on social media. Which is a very different and very new battle compared to what went on in the 80s and 90s.On the second video he is right that the right has won the cultural war, or more specifically the ideological war.

All seasoned with a whiff of tear gas and Molotov cocktails. Delightful.You'd get very good value for your money (I think). Their currency is shit. Steak and wine in Rosario sounds amazing.

Looking forward to the reports on how Twitter actively helped spread disinformation in Argentina and heavily boosted this guys chance.The Elon Musk kiss of death.
"I actually used to be center-left but then they moved so far to the left that I suddenly found myself on the right"The Elon Musk kiss of death.
This should have received a earlier than this.He would siiuuuuuuu for peace
Prosperity = Dystopia. At least he'll be able to flog his cars that "Blade Runner would drive" without the all the nonesense around safety concernes etc.The Elon Musk kiss of death.
You could argue they voted against themselves every time they voted for the guys taking them to 40%, then 50%... and that at 62% you sort of start realising the other 38% can't be arsed any more.62% state dependent and they vote a guy that wants to destroy anything that the state represents. How many times people will vote against themselves?
Of course it is, it's a football forum, I'm not going to write a dissertation.I don't know a lot about the situation in Argentina, but this feels simplistic.
Adopting the USD has to be number 1, the rest is idiotic libertarian discourse.Appears to be a bit of a maniac. I’ve only seen a few headlines but in terms of abolishing the central bank, allowing people to sell organs, adopting the USD, relaxing gun laws and banning abortion - I wonder which he will do first.
No, he doesn't, so will insist they continue to be in the shitter because parliament stands on his way. It's all very healthy for the democratic institutions.Good luck Argentina..
How does it work, if he doesnt have a majority in parliament he can't pass laws?
Does he have it?
Best time to go there for services, food, wine, meds and leather goods. Don't try buy any imported products, insanely expensive if available at all.Bloody hell.

This is very objectively a terrible idea, kind of Brexitlike. Esentially Argentina would renounce to its ability to implement monetary policy and/or stimulize its economy. In a country too saddled with foreign debt to expand its already enormous public spending in the case of a major crisis. In a world economy that's going through its most unstable period in the last 40 years. While at the same time the winning government is also threatening to cut ties with two of its major economic partners. So yes, a recipe for disaster.Adopting the USD has to be number 1, the rest is idiotic libertarian discourse.
Their ability to cheat through the exchange rate and money printing is second to none. Not a terrible idea except I've no idea how you handle the day after and it would probably be all for nothing when the other guys return and reinvent the peso to go back to their own ways.
So in your view, the only ones who are working are the well-off (many of whom own their own companies), while the poor, those who can't survive without government welfare, are... what? Lazy?You could argue they voted against themselves every time they voted for the guys taking them to 40%, then 50%... and that at 62% you sort of start realising the other 38% can't be arsed any more.
Hundreds of thousands of well off Argentinians have moved over to Uruguay, many took their HQs with them if not their entire companies.
It probably is indeed. I can see all sorts of reasons why not, the problem is I can also see how their monetary policies have completely eviscerated Argentina's productive capacity.This is very objectively a terrible idea, kind of Brexitlike.

That's a deliberate oversimplification which is entirely on you.So in your view, the only ones who are working are the well-off (many of whom own their own companies), while the poor, those who can't survive without government welfare, are... what? Lazy?
What do you reckon will happen to the 62%? All go and get better paid jobs tomorrow?That's a deliberate oversimplification which is entirely on you.
It is a fact that the São Paulo agenda is anchored on increasing people's dependency on the state so that they can be controlled by the state.
Essentially, give them fish and make sure they have no idea how to fish. That's what the corrupt Kirchneristas have done systematically to sustain their political dominance.
Again, if 62% of the population depend on the state, who got you there other than the people running the country for the last two decades?
I'm not saying they didn't. Argentina is complete mess, clearly it's been poorly ran on top of whatever other problems there might be. Running a strong representative of that for president seems like a monumental miscalculation. I just happen to think the alternative of introducing insane anarcho-capitalism on an already suffering and struggling population is very much not the solution. As bad as things are, they can get much worse.Again, if 62% of the population depend on the state, who got you there other than the people running the country for the last two decades?

Guessing it's a catch-all stat that includes pensioners, child-benefits, tax-credits etc. State dependency is very subjective. To some it means the unemployed, to others it means anyone that's ever used a public service.What do you guys mean by 62% state dependency? Argentina's public sector seems to medium sized according to be google (roughly 17%).
All the people I know who are dependent on the state is because they have health issues or can't get jobs that pay enough to support their households. Not because they're lazy. I would bet my house (if I could afford one) that it's the same in argentina. People not being able to make a living and needing help doesn't make them lazy.That's a deliberate oversimplification which is entirely on you.

In some ways they've elected someone who is worse than Trump, Modi, Bolsonaro, Orban, etc. On the other hand, Argentina is such a mess that it's easier to understand how someone like that could get elected. The other countries didn't have such an excuse. Particularly Britain, who had the least excuse of anyone for their omnishambles elections.Well done Argentina, well done.
