Politics Thread: President Javier Milei - From Decree of Necessity and Urgency (DNU) to Today

[Larry]

Are you all crazy. Listen to Milei. Do you actually listen to some of the things he says? He is a crazy narcissist.


The President faces the temptation of reclining into his comfort zone of political seclusion, his natural posture. Recent public lines point to an ego-trip period of isolationism. Only just this week, we’ve had: “I am the greatest representative of liberty in the world”; “I am in a different league. Local politicians are Lilliputians [compared to me]”; “Argentine politicians are insignificant”; “Wherever I go, I generate a sensation… [ politicians] would love to be in my position”; and “I am one of the world's top five leaders… I am the world’s second-most important leader.”

Normal people don't talk like this. He is crazy. He speaks to his dead dogs.

Gulliver Milei needs to engage with the Lilliputians

Even the Lilliputians in Jonathan Swift’s 'Gulliver’s Travels' were clever enough to feed their giant alien visitor before using him for their own advantage.

Exactly. He is sick. Crazy how people don't see this. Also, by my estimates social unrest will increase. Only so long the poor can keep accepting things as they are.

Rich investors cheer Milei as Argentines bear brunt of austerity

Amid Wall Street and investor optimism, critics are questioning how long Javier Milei's spending cuts can be sustained without permanently damaging the economy or fraying the social fabric.

Also at a time when so many Argentines are suffering and starving - Milei is wasting public taxpayer funds going to Spain for personal reasons. Why is this necessary? Why aren't you supporters talking about all of this wasting of funds for personal reasons. Is this essential for Argentina?

Criminal complaint filed against Milei for his Spanish trip

After the Argentine Embassy in Madrid argued that President Javier Milei's recent trip to the Spanish capital was strictly personal, three lawmakers from the opposition Radical Civic Union (UCR) have filed criminal charges against the head of state and a high-ranking official for alleged corruption.

If Biden wasn't president I would say the USA is always typically up there. But things in the States are a mess. Biden is kind of a laughing stock. Even my friends that are lifelong democrats can't deny what a joke Biden has become.

I do agree with you that President Milei needs to be careful now that he has a book that he isn't just going around the world every month promoting his book. Spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to go to meetings that could argue are actually for the benefit of Argentina vs. the President could be a huge negative for him. He needs to stop traveling so much and focus on the issues at hand and not stirring up trouble.

Argentina has a lot of big problems and he is coming off as an ego maniac to many.

He waste too much money on things not so important. He spend all his time outside of Argentina. He just left USA a few weeks ago and now going back.

Why does Argentina need new logo? Why spend money on stupid projects like this? A new logo is about the only thing this guy accomplish.

Services now are worse than before. Transportation costs skyrocketed and service very horrible. Milei spend all he time going to USA many times. Going to Europe for vain speeches and fight with all the leaders of other countries. Go to Israel to weeping wall. What really change in Argentina? This guy uses smoke and mirrors to make surplus better but it not real. He stop all needed projects. Fire all the state workers.

Inflation slow down a little but not so much. All I see the country worse than before.

Lol How much do you think a new logo is??

Well let's ask how much they spent on it. It shouldn't cost that much but who knows for sure. Many things this government is doing doesn't make sense.

This is a preview of the social unrest that will be coming later this year.

It is very sad and pathetic it took a court order for Milei to release desperately needed food to the poor!

Do you get it? He is trying to get investments into Argentina. These types of leaders would NEVER agree to meet a President of Argentina. Do you really think they would be meeting with Massa if he won? You all are only thinking negatively. Definitely glass half empty people.

Half the time I see videos and news on him I think he is a genius. The other 50% I think he is mentally ill. I'm not sure which yet. But I guess time will tell.
