You think Bukele taking armed thugs in to intimidate their congress is the


act of a statesman? Or his security forces murdering people? His efforts to remove members of their supreme court he perceived as hostile? How about Milei's advocacy of "chainsaw economics," his attempts to gut regulations and retaliate against unions? Or his embrace of conspiracy theories? Or his attempts to rehabilitate the Galtieri government? Or his retaliation against government officials?

Yeah, these guys were elected. So were Hitler and Mussolini and Bolsonaro and Trump. What does that have to do with it?
