They're already calling this Trump's Financial Vietnam.
Most Argentines, I think, know a confidence trick when they see one - and the more that Cheeto, Bessent and the rest of these cretins try to "breathe confidence" into Argentine markets, the more it backfires.
Bessent, by the way, in Spanish, almost sounds like "kisser" (besante) - so you can imagine what they're calling him down there.
So the ass kisser has already blown over $1 billion of U.S. taxpayer money in trying to prop up the peso - just for some midterms in a peripheral country (which Bessent apparently convinced Trump they were "presidential" elections).
And probably another $200 million more today - for nothing.
Milei is reportedly already having regular nervous breakdowns (for which his witch-doctor sister keeps copious supplies of morphine - purchased with all that kickback money, no doubt). The guy's obviously an addict by now.
What a tragedy - and what a farce.
Thank you as always for keeping up with these things, and for your good cheer. Have a great weekend!
