I wonder how much this whole situation resonates with what happened in Argentina, when they elected Milei.

Milei to them was an obvious lunatic who would probably be terrible but had a small chance to be different, versus their traditional party who would very obviously just continue the country's predictable economic decline.

Then again, I can't really see any way Trump could be good for you if you're poor. Not ever by the most charitable interpretations.

I think the difference is we already had Trump as President. Thinking he might be good now is admitting you have no idea how he was the first time.
