The Spin
Right narrative
Having saved Argentina's economy by ripping up the economic and political status quo from the inside, Javier Milei is living proof that Trump's plan for America is destined to be a huge success. Free from the chains of the global establishment, both countries are once again committed to championing the ideals of liberalism and are destined to forge a strong alliance in the years to come.
Left narrative
If Milei's Heritage Foundation-fuelled agenda is anything to go by, America has every right to be scared of the future under the incoming Trump administration. As minority rights, abortion access, and government spending are slashed in Argentina, ideological opponents are silenced and the public remain stuck in devastating poverty. The US must brace itself for a similar purge under the radical MAGA agenda.
