I have bad news for you. They basically elected a right-wing shock-jock President. This is like if Americans elected Tucker Carlson. I mean, I get that Argentina couldn't survive another Peronist, but this is not better.
The final outcome could be okay if dollarization happens - I do agree with economists that dollarization would probably be good for AR... the rest of his other "platform" planks aren't so rosy, and MAGA extremists aren't known for restricting their scope.
