The free market guy is devaluing the peso by adding a massive 20 billion IMF debt to the country LOL!!!!

The IMF debt trap can be blamed on the right wing Macri and MileI governments, the left wing governments over the last 15 years reduced external debt significantly

Pure nonsense.  Byrd, Gore and Fulbright were liberal Democrats to name a few.   In fact the more Republican the South has become, the less racist.

“Libertarian”   LOL you fucking suckers 

They're 100% centrists at the least by international standards

Sounds like things are going well…

Argentine financial assets rallied on Monday, with stocks rising the most in six months, international dollar bonds up more than 6 cents and the peso strengthening after Washington pledged full support for Argentina's right-wing government ahead of key midterm elections next month.

 

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said "all options"are on the table for stabilizing Argentina, including swap lines and direct currency purchases, while underscoring President Donald Trump's confidence in Argentine President Javier Milei and his economic team.

 

Bessent told reporters after earlier announcing support for Argentina on social media that any U.S. action would be "large and forceful," but said no steps would be taken until after he and Trump meet with Milei in New York on Tuesday.

 

Argentine markets have fallen sharply in recent weeks, with international bonds down more than 20% for the year through Friday. The peso has been pressing against the weaker limit of a band set months ago, as corruption allegations inside Milei's circle and a larger-than-expected loss in a local election in Buenos Aires triggered investor concern over Milei's ability to reshape the economy.

"Early results in Argentina's legislative elections on Sunday showed a landslide victory for President Javier Milei as voters overwhelmingly backed his free-market reforms and deep austerity measures, providing a strong boost for the libertarian leader to continue his economic overhaul.

 

The president's party, La Libertad Avanza, scored 41.5% of the vote in Buenos Aires province compared with 40.8% for the Peronist coalition, according to official results. The province has long been a political stronghold for the Peronists, marking a dramatic political shift."
