Who could've predicted that electing a free market enjoyer would result in the economy collapsing overnight.

When you're a capitalist shill but create the ideal material conditions for a popular revolutionary movement to grow.

These are typically to type of socio-economic conditions that historically sparked revolutions, right?

And not even a month in too!

If the Marxist-Leninists in Argentina are somewhat well established we could see a revolution during this clown's presidency, but I don't know Argentina well enough to say if it is.

If it is though, given the conditions of the US, they probably wouldn't be able to overthrow it so easily this time around.

Not sure what the state of organization on the left is like in Argentina, but US is definitely in a much weaker position to meddle than they have been in decades. Another factor is that there are multiple Latin American states now that are moving left and working together. This makes it much harder for US to interfere and to use their favorite tactics like economic warfare.
