Cry for me Argentina

US kicks off $20B rescue plan for Argentina.
America first. Let’s withdraw funding and support for our allies around the entire globe, except let’s help out Scott Bessent’s buddy cuz he made an investment in Argentina.

Does this confirm that Milei’s reforms won’t work without financial support from the US government?
Argentina is now on the dole.
Isn’t this the opposite of Milei’s fiscal austerity?

which was actually helping fight disease and hunger in poor areas around the world.
I don't have anything against Argentina, and I don't mind helping them. But this 20 billion is just flushing the money down the toilet. It will get funneled to the hedge funds that made investments in Argentina, but it won't help Argentina address anything. Their currency will collapse.

Why do you think their currency will collapse?

And what is causing their currency devaluation?
This sounds like a job for Tiggity®
I’m not knowledgeable about such things. I don’t understand why a currency would collapse as a result of fiscal discipline.

Just swamp creatures doing swamp creature things.
Our only hope is to vote all of the current politicians out, set term limits and mandatory balanced budgets.
We are so screwed and both sides share culpability. If we are unable to see that then we are the problem.

the world is maddening. All the comments about Ukraine being Europe’s problem but stabilizing Argentina is of US national interests seems ridiculous. I am all for stability in South America but Europe is a much bigger deal for US.

It's not even about stability in Argentina

it's about bailing out an ally of Trump so they can argue Trump style economics work.
It's much much more than just giving a country a favor.

principles in anything they've been touting and defending for so long. Outside of absolutely nothing about it being "America First", the massive grift for Bessent's hedge fund buddy and Trump ally who bet big big on Argentina and Milei is insane. And it doesn't even require warped shape shifting conspiracy thinking to follow that money trail.
MAGA voters getting it right up the ### and loving it. Wow.
