I have spoken to "locals" but I wouldn't call that a representative sample. She's been in power for less than 2 years so maybe let's hold off before drawing any conclusions. They may well turn out as failures but it's certainly too early to make any conclusions when there's still hundreds of groundbreaking ceremonies that haven't even happened

FWIW she's still one of the most popular leaders in all of South America

no... Mexico is in north america

and if you follow Mexican politics, her politics are almost entirely a continuation of the last president who was her political mentor so it's reasonably well understood what trajectory her term is on

I meant to type Latin America. Too late to edit.

You mean to say she will reach her term limit and step down?

To be fair, we Brazilians also like her very much. She’s a Mexican Lula and we wish her success.
