    Very disappointed watching the debate! Massa was indeed using the falacia ad populum strategy.

    The key aspects was Milei would dollarize the economy and close the Central Bank, but he did loose his temper...

    Meanwhile I'm happly encouraged with our farm's progress, as Madame is resting in Viña del Mar.

    ¡Saludos de Panquehue!

    As we now know, Milei's performance here didn't do any significant harm to his results. I wonder if this is what Argentina needs, an angry, crazy figurehead who can take on the Ks at their own game while meanwhile his government will actually try to improve things for its citizens quietly in the background? I think Macri made so real improvements to Argentina when he was in power but be suffered from being too polite. We shall see...
