"Muffling the screeches" is exactly what it is. 
To answer your question, sitting U.S. Presidents have visited Argentina on just six occasions: FDR, 1936; Ike, 1959; Poppy Bush, 1990; Clinton, 1997; Dubya, 2005; and Obama.
If you're interested Judi, here's a live news link from Argentina for President Obama's arrival at Ezeiza International Airport (any minute now).
It's worth noting that Obama's arriving at almost 1:00 a.m. local time, which to me seems clearly designed to let Macri know he wants as little to do with him as possible. Presidents on state visits, as you know, almost always arrive by day; to arrive so close to bedtime is a thinly-veiled message.
Enjoy!
