Always lots drama in Argentine politics - and 2027 promises to be no exception.

Not least, because Trump (assuming his clogged heart doesn't give out before then) is sure to put his fat thumb on the scale for Milei - like Cheeto did for the Argentine mid-terms last October by threatening to tank the peso if they "didn't vote the right way."

As they say in Argentina, Qué quilombo!

What a mess.
