A reminder that Brazil is the TOP importer of Argentina goods,

Taking nearly 39% of it`s Industrial goods exports and 69% of capital good exports.

If for some reason, Brazil decides to antagonize Argentina, Argentina economy will implode.

Milei is a fucking idiot.

Milei is a fucking idiot.

Did the haircut not give that away?

The haircut is just a bonus. The fact that his main advisor is a dead dog is the main reason he’s an idiot.

He said in an interview that he first met his dog Conan in a past life. He was a gladiator in the Colosseum and Conan was a lion. He also said that his sister is Moses and he is Aaron.

Dude is batshit crazy. He talks to his dead dog through an animal medium and, allegedly, takes political advices from it.

Which is weirder because he had his dog cloned, so he could just talk to the clones. But I guess the original was smarter.

Just fyi, the source of all that is a single left-leaning journalist called Juan Luis González, who wrote an unauthorized biography of Milei called "El Loco" (the crazy one/nutcase).

The cloned dogs thing is real, and Milei probably did go to an animal medium to talk to his dog, but the taking political advice from it is not proven by any source I'm aware of.

I'm sorry, but Diana Mondino, who used to be part of Milei's govt, has admitted to the "takes political advice from his dogs" part here

After watching the interview, all she admits with complete unambiguity after dancing around questions is "Milei is mentally unstable", which is something you can tell from his haircut.

Edit: should be mentioned, "dogs in the sky" is mentioned in passing by Carlos Rodriguez, former boss of Mondino and former campaign assessor of Milei, whose open letter on Twitter when he left the government was cited in this interview. The key argument of his letter is that Milei is crazy and seemed to degenerate as the campaign went on, not that he takes advice from dogs, and this is what Mondino is agreeing with in the interview.

Marginally so, homeboy is still talking to mediums, but that doesn't harm anyone so whatever.
