#453 โ€“ Javier Milei: President of Argentina โ€“ Freedom, Economics, and Corruption

Currently in Argentina, due to the political balance we've achieved, we have had certain powers delegated from Congress to the executive branch, and therefore we can resolve it by decree. The deregulation minister, Federico Sturzenegger, in his ministry, shows a counter that displays in front of everyone there.

He displays the number of days, all right? during which the delegated powers will continue to be valid. Therefore, he has a whole deregulation division, also a public spending cut division, and government structure reduction division, and he also has an elite core that's cleaning up all of the laws that hinder the economic system and progress.

And every day he removes between one and five economic restrictions. So my advice would be for them to go all the way, to push it to the very limit. And do not give up. Do not let down their guard. Furthermore, that agenda does not have political purpose because at the end of the day you are removing privileges.

Of course, there will be people complaining, but those are people, these are people who are losing privileges. So they will have to explain to society why they are keeping those privileges. And that is quite uncomfortable.

#453 โ€“ Javier Milei: President of Argentina โ€“ Freedom, Economics, and Corruption

There are several things that I... I admire about President Trump. The first is that he probably, I think he's provided ample proof of this in his first presidency. He understands the nature of the cultural battle. He has openly confronted socialism. His speeches openly target socialism. He perfectly understands the woke virus. And that is, you know, of great value.

Because it means understanding what it's all about. Another thing I truly admire about him is his courage. In fact, thankfully, thank goodness he didn't get assassinated or killed. But it was by a small chance occurrence that could have killed him. Just because he moved at the right moment. And yet that didn't intimidate him and he went on.

And in fact, during his first campaign and in this one as well, in the second one and third one, they criticized him, insulted him, offended him, said awful things about him, made up all sorts of horrible stories about him. In that respect, I can say I deeply relate because Probably no one in our history has had such a negative campaign from all the media like they did to me.
