(23,136 posts)He knows that his chances for re-election (in '27) are now down to next-to-nothing.
So he recently decreed an extra US$100 million for the country's "intelligence" agency (think J. Edgar Hoover - minus the skirts) - which he also deregulated.
Like Trump's pal Macri (in 2015-19), he'll basically use them to spy to everyone - and tweak results he doesn't like.
Under Macri, precinct reports had the opposition numbers "whited-out" (i.e. tampered with the PDF files) - though, outside a senate seat, he stopped short of wholesale fraud.
Milei's hinted many times that - like Trump - he will not respect the next elections unless he wins.
And as his "shock" policies sink the country ever deeper into a deep depression, ever the mid-terms in '25 will be at risk.
Cry for Argentina.
