    hopefully circumstances worsen quickly enough that it’ll be noticable for everybody so that the general public can clearly identify it as a direct consequence of this maniac being elected. If its deteriorating too slowly people might just not notice it as much and might go along with all the coming explanations ( probably immigrants, leftists, blahblah). If there’s a quick look into the abyss people might wake up and get into action.

      They’re already saying he inherited an unfixable catastrophe. The stalwarts aren’t even trying to pretend that he might be successful.

      But to me, that just makes it sound like the ones who he inherited it from were managing the same crisis infinitely better. And it’s not like it’s one of those ticking time bomb economies that politicians set up when their opposition gets elected - it’s a fire that has been actively burning. The only new ingredient is Milei’s administration itself.

      But I expect that he will fail miserably and do immense harm to the people, and that his failure will be excused by blaming it on prior management rather than blaming his policies that caused the situation to spiral out of control. I don’t find the narrative convincing, but that’s what I expect to hear from people.
