Yeah, the headline on this article is dumb, but the content is very edifying: If this stuff is even half-true, it's a very enviable position that Milei is in. One can imagine that it's a Trump style shock win that also gives him at least a chance at controlling the congress.

Man, so I'm like a weirdo attorney and wild man business person. But, I really do appreciate your super thoughtful leftist takes that you contribute here. I don't really agree with you usually, but I genuinely appreciate your perspectives. That said, Milei is a megastar in Miami and with...

It's truly remarkable to me how Bullrich is being ignored, non-Milei are now going all in on Massa, and there is a broad sense that a Milei presidency is inevitable. Even the official classes are conceding that they are out of ideas . . . Massa himself, for instance, agreed to what once would...

I know that Argentina needs exactly what Milei is proposing, and needs it hard. I think we all know that. But like Carlson, man, that's like not the person you want to align with. For sure, this is what Milei is kind of doing, down to the weirdo hair. Milei is a hardline dude. He will...

Yeah, I don't have any real objection to this - why would people not have political opinions that work to their own advantage. But when you get some goofy people claiming that only Americans do that, or that it's bad for people to do it . . . that's when you know that they're not serious...

The hot assumption is that he's secretly rich, but I bet that he really doesn't have much or even any money at all. A classic adventurer like you don't really see too often.

And to certain people ("another day, another drive-by post from our Pierre"), just so you know, this is what I posted in March. Which was literally the only correct prediction anyone posted, here or in any of the media. Though, obviously Bullrich edged out Larreta.

Yeah, basically, as I said elsewhere, dollarization is very bad for almost everyone in the short term - I mean me, I mean you, I mean the IMF and bondholders (another default incoming), the works - but in the longer term would permanently kill inflation and force fiscal discipline onto all...

Yeah, I believe very strongly that Milei is the best choice, and that his policies would be very good for Argentina in the long run, especially dollarization/central bank elimination. However, that would make life in Argentina much more expensive for me, therefore, my natural inclination if I'm...

I believe he was responding to your schizo ultra left conspiracy theories.

Standing by this?

As I said, he's a Peronist.

I really hope that he becomes the president, it would be very very entertaining. That said, a few things. One, the guy is obviously a hardcore Yukio Mishima or Pim Fortyn-style homosexual, a true aesthete ultra right type who will end up erecting beaux arts-style buildings and deriding the...

Trump is actually more of a Peronist. As for Milei, he will have limited effectiveness, since he will not control the congress. I still have to doubt that he'll win, but the numbers look very promising - 30% in the paso, 27% for the other right of center parties who will never vote for...

See episode 4 of Relatos salvajes (2014), though not necessarily connected to Larreta. Personally, while I don't like any of them (and can't vote, anyway), I think it will probably be Massa, Larreta, or Milei. Best money is on Larreta, but the big payoff is on Milei, who has not peaked and...

With the trip to the airport, hassle checking and getting to your seats, risk of delays, and then the whole process when you get to Montevideo, the ferry is actually the better call.

It's a tisane, at best. Not tea at all, unless you mean like an herbal tea. Also, to something someone else said, definitely should not use milk. And to another comment - Julio Cortazar and others in that milieu thought of mate as a kind of 'intellectual' drug and wrote about it as such...

1000% acquired taste, but nobody I've ever imposed it on has not come to like it or in some cases become a full blown addict. The trick is not to get any of the fancier new ones with flavor, or to get the low cost twig ones. You have to make it yourself (and you don't need that gourd), but...

Even higher now. Absolutely amazing. That's over 100% inflation per year since Macri bombed out in the primary. Probably the world cup for that too.

She will not be able to sue for alimony in California, as you're not domiciled there and weren't when you divorced. She's gravely mistaken about the law on that. However, it's possible that she could have a claim to half the income you made while you were married and domiciled in California...
