Argentina Elect a Sports Presenter from the 1970s

Argentines have elected far-right outsider Javier Milei, 53, as their new president.

With almost all votes counted, Mr Milei had won close to 56% in the decisive run-off, ahead of his left-wing rival, Sergio Massa, with 44%.

The radical newcomer's victory has been described as "a political earthquake".

It has been welcomed by like-minded politicians such as US ex-President Donald Trump, who said Mr Milei would "Make Argentina Great Again".

Brazil's former leader Jair Bolsonaro said that "hope would shine again in South America".

Sometimes dubbed "El Loco" (the madman) by his critics, Mr Milei has promised drastic changes, which include ditching the local currency, the peso, for the US dollar and "blowing up" the central bank in order to prevent it from printing more money, which he argues is driving inflation.

Hard right, libertarian, excuses military crimes, apparently hears voices, called the Pope a 'filthy leftist'. Seems like a great bunch of lads.

The usual right-wing lot around the world, Trump etc., are cheering him on.

I'd be worried for the Argentinians, but I think they're used to their economy being fucked.

Wasn't there a fascist dictatorship in Argentina when the Falklands was invaded? I wonder if they'll try and do that again.

Was just reading about him earlier.  He reminds me of Ron Paul.  I'm amazed he has been elected when you at how radical his views are.

He's also connected to the usual Tufton St mob and its network of climate change denialists: https://substack.com/profile/8210670-peter-geoghegan/note/c-43964737.

He put out a 26-point denial of various 'fake news' circulating about him which included 'Milei had sex with his sister' which is apparently FALSO ( but I think it's trueso). Other fun ones in there included that he murders dogs and dressed a donkey up like a priest (that last one might be falso).

cut those fascist sideburns you look like a fascist girl

Good lord. The eyes of a killer and the hair of a young Eric Idle.

[Butchers Blind]

It's a wig.

Novara did quite a big piece on him last night.  No words.  Seriously frightening.  Timestamped for your ease - https://youtu.be/s9Oo2OI4-Hg?t=1606

Serves them right for the hand of God.

he looks likes he failed an audition for L.S.D. in the Producers now he's gonna take his narc rage out on the icecaps

[jobotic]

Yeah he might look like a regular in The Woolpack in a 1983 episode of Emmerdale Farm but he's a seriously nasty bastard.

Meanwhile in the UK another nasty fascist bastard with a semi-amusing appearance is having his next political move boosted by ITV and will probably end up running the country after Starmer has done nothing to help anyone after his four year go on the controls.

All i can see is his features making the shape of a happy little man jiggling his cock and balls at you.

Except for the hair, my lad's shaved, he looks the twin of someone I work for.  Mine is a gbol so thank you for making me see that.

It's accepted that had Argentina invaded after Thatcher's mob had implemented their planned defence cuts, Britain would have been in no position to reclaim the Falklands. Galtieri went a year or so too early. The task force that sailed to reclaim the Falklands was bigger than the entire current fleet. I reckon if this new cunt with the manly wig can get a couple of pedalos and a raft together, it could be game on. If Trump gets in, he might well back him. Then we can all go to hell

[jamiefairlie]

Argentina and the Tories should have a standing agreement on The Falklands so whenever the Tories are struggling in government they just bung them a few billion dollars and play out a fake invasion, win win.

I saw him (El Presidento) guy for the first time yesterday; I thought it was someone impersonating Brent.

[Fambo Number Mive]

So how easy will it be for Mieli to get through his agenda? His LLA party doesn't seem to have many seats but I'm not sure how the government of Argentina works.

Fucking hell. Terrifying

[Buelligan]

Heheh.  Dunno why I'm laughing, it really is fucking horrific.  We are fucked.   Hard to believe it's real.
