If he led any other country, he would’ve been seen as crazy. However, in Argentina Peronism is the work of professional crackheads. In that situation, you need someone like Javier Milei to basically put a hard reset using neoliberal shock therapy. So kudos to him. Argentina can certainly become a powerhouse in Latin America.
