Was Pepe Mujica Right ?

[Noesdeayer]

Pepe Mujica,78,ex-president of Uruguay and a chief exponent of rioplatense "soy asi no mas" or WTF stated
It's not that Macri won the Argentine election.What happened was that Kirchnerism lost.
I agree wholeheartedly.The Argentine electorate said,"Basta-Enough!".OK.It was a squeaker.51%.
"Un margin chiquitito-A teen,weeny margin" Cristina said.
But it was enough for a new beginning for Argentina.I hope they keep building on it.
Bernie Sanders,please take note.We old guys (jovatitos) have to stick together.

That's like saying
Argentina won the world cup
because Germany lost 0-1
or something like that
A win's a win isn't it?

If read in a specific context (which may or may not be the context in which it was actually said), the sentiment makes some sense.

Of the 51% that voted Macri, many may well have been motivated less by admiration for Macri than by a rejection of all things K.

Still, that's how democracy works, isn't it? Cue my favorite tweet about democracy, ever.

ben:
True enough. Although given what Rich One commented plus the fact that Pepe also said when Cristina was still president,
"La Argentina no hace un carajo para Mercosur",I would think that he was hitting on Kirchnerism more than anything else.

I almost died laughing when I heard him say that. And then he was not going to recant and there was some rift shortly there after.

So, did Mathias lose his job after the election, and is that why we don;t hear from him anymore?
