    This is indeed a major scandal for the Macri administration. A Macri in government literally melting down a huge debt of the Macri group surely will not be digested that easily by electors who voted in the belief that honesty and transparency was coming to government.

    To be fair, it really only implies that the voters believed that, which is surely true. Anyway, Enrique may not believe in the corruption charges, but it must be obvious to anyone that CFK's government was lacking transparency, with the Indec and the 'alternative' poverty measurement as examples.

    People are getting fed up of Macri. The Peronists may be back very soon.
