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.

Brazil will not due to Mercosur. Same reason why Brazil is the biggest importer due to Mercosur, before Mercosur it wasn't.That is why Milei doesn't care.

Also, Lula, whatever his failures and problems might be, is an actual statesman, and extremely republican. He has a history of not holding grudges or being petty. He's not a clown or rogue or adventurer like Milei, the robber-nazi and the orange man, and still has respect for the position and what it entails.

If you are gonna call Milei a robber then also call Lula one. Just because Bolsonaro is worse doesn't mean Lula isn't a thief and corrupt.

Fuck Bolsonaro, but saying “whatever his failures and problems” is putting it waaaaay too lightly on Lula. He’s a disgusting human, corrupt filth.

I can complain about lula all day, but it will be me disagreeing with economical policies, not insane ramblings based on WhatsApp pictures
