Marketing, lies and false promises did work during the 2015 Macri's first presidential election campaign.

Now, Macri will need a magician to design a campaign that manages to deflect attention from a dying economy to less controversial topics.

Macri will not be able this time to pretend ability to tame inflation (it has been festering several digits over that of CFK) achieve poverty zero (poverty has increased under his watch) and, most of all, will not be able to claim fight corruption, as an investigation into an extortion case has ballooned and threatens to reach the highest levels of the Macri administration.

Of course, Clarin and La Nacion are keeping pretty discreet about the affair and MP hasn't had time to publish anything about it.

Freedom of information, they call it.

Don't worry Kamerad/Komrade, (AKA “Short Eyes”,) nobody cares about the K crap sourced agitprop you post. Hopefully the country will bottom out just in time for La Asesina. Next comes Argenzuela. Unable to attack, let alone threaten, or attack Paraguay, Uruguay, or Chile. Of course you won't be there, since if you did return, you'd be fingerprinted, something that would truly be entertaining if it resulted in your arrest. :)
