Former President Donald Trump has told Argentina’s President-elect Javier Milei that he plans to travel to the South American country so the two can meet, Milei’s office said Thursday.
The office did not give a date for when Trump intends to be in Buenos Aires. The inauguration of Milei, a right-wing populist who has expressed admiration for Trump, is scheduled for Dec. 10.
“The president-elect received a call last night from the former president of the United States, Donald Trump, who congratulated him and pointed out his triumph by a wide margin in last Sunday’s election had a great impact on a global scale,” a news release from Milei’s office said.
A local journalist who was first to report the news, Luis Majul, wrote on X early Thursday that the lawmaker son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, Eduardo Bolsonaro, was the one who “facilitated” the contact between Milei and the GOP front-runner. “That’s right,” Milei posted in response.
Argentina gets what it deserves with this guy. Watch em crying in a few years that things are worse, and they’ll just vote in another right wing moron, cause that’s what their macho brain is wired to do. I’ve met a ton of Argentineans while at my job and they’re generally arrogant and right wing, like they’re over compensating.
Maybe don’t judge an entire country based on random people you’ve met? Almost half of them didn’t vote for this shithead.
There’s a reason why Argentineans are disliked by pretty much every other Latin American country, they’re the ones who think they’re above the rest of us and they think they’re European
South America is a pendulous place for politics. After each dude on the right, they go left. Rinse, wash, repeat.
The current government is intentionally leaving a debt in USD of about 130000 millions. We are already with 3 digits inflation. 4 years of woes and problems aggravated by the current government, which was actually looking to be reelected. 56% of people said no to that.
