Some people are calling it, but at this point, it's merely wishful thinking.

I hope hope is wise enough to replace every last leftist in the government and start a draconian prosecution of them.

This is great!!

Way back in the Gov Walker years in WI, the lefties were able to orchestrate a several year ‘John Doe’ investigation into his administration. This seems to be a common M.O., at the least attempting to put a cloud of suspicion over the Republican.

In WI, they had news headlines for years, then it fizzled out, nothing became of it. Since many on the left don’t think, never bothered them in the least.

No way an election in Argentina is that lopsided if fairly run.

How do you mean? What were the final results? I haven't been able to find them yet.

Look again at the chart. It's not a tabulation of votes.

NOW it's official.

Reuters calls it for Javier Milei


BUENOS AIRES, Nov 19 (Reuters) - Argentina elected libertarian outsider Javier Milei as its new president on Sunday, rolling the dice on an outsider with radical views to fix an economy battered by triple-digit inflation, a looming recession and rising poverty.

Official results have not been released, but his rival, Peronist Economy Minister Sergio Massa, conceded in a speech. His candidacy was hampered by the country's worst economic crisis in two decades while he has been at the helm.

Milei is pledging economic shock therapy. His plans include shutting the central bank, ditching the peso, and slashing spending, potentially painful reforms that resonated with voters angry at the economic malaise, but sparked fears of austerity in others.

"Milei is the new thing, he's a bit of an unknown and it is a little scary, but it's time to turn over a new page," said 31-year-old restaurant worker Cristian as he voted on Sunday.

But Milei's challenges are enormous. He will have to deal with the empty coffers of the government and central bank, a creaking $44 billion debt program with the International Monetary Fund, inflation nearing 150% and a dizzying array of capital controls.

With many Argentines not fully convinced by either candidate, some had characterized the vote as a choice of the "lesser evil": fear of Milei's painful economic medicine versus anger at Massa and his Peronist party for an economic crisis that has left Argentina deeply in debt and unable to tap global credit markets.

Milei has been particularly popular among the young, who have grown up seeing their country lurch from one crisis to another.

"Our generation is pushing the presidency of Milei to stop our country being a pariah," said Agustina Lista, 22, a student in Buenos Aires.

Milei's win shakes up Argentina's political landscape and economic roadmap, and could impact trade in grains, lithium and hydrocarbons. Milei has criticized China and Brazil, saying he won't deal with "communists," and favors stronger U.S. ties.

The guy has been described as a combination of Ron Paul and Donald Trump. Congratulations to Argentina!

Let's hope he takes a hard line on China and kicks them out of the country. Not likely, but we can hope.

I hope President-elect Milei has the best protective detail at his disposal. When you set out to dismantle the gravy train, you won't be able to count the number of people who will want you dead.

God bless Argentina! When he started shouting “LIBERTAD, LIBERTAD, LIBERTAD!”, my mind shouted Revenga!……..

BTW, is Jim Cramer ever right? Honest to God, the guy seems like a perfect reverse barometer.

Latin America needs a rightist revolution! Brazil has swung the wrong way as has Colombia and of course Venezuela is in the toilet. Free market competition and deregulation could turn South of the Border into an economic powerhouse. Viva Argentina!
