Deutsche Welle from Germany just posted this documentary on Argentina’s deep dive into neo-liberalism after a year of Javier Milei’s taking over power. While nowhere near a perfect match, Argentina may gives some insights into what may be coming. 

Remember that Argentina has had decades of inept governments and at the time of election last year inflation was eating them alive. Yet the policies enacted by Milei are nearly the same that Trump is planning to use. 

Also remember that the US is enjoying one of its best economies ever under President Biden and VP Kamala Harris. Trump intends to fix that.

I took some very brief notes that I will post below the video. The running length is 28 and a half minutes. There will be some folks praising Milei. As far as I could tell those were business people. Anyway, this is in no way trying to predict what will happen but may give you an idea of what may be coming:

Here are a few of the notes I scribbled:

Movie on Milei:  

• business man praising Milei
• Poor getting poorer and government workers out of jobs
• Food prices doubled in a year
• Poverty way up (60%)
• Young people voted for Milei (70%)
• Small scale farmers and producers forgotten 
• Big farmers not ok, but more hopeful
• Milei censoring the press
• ‘The left’ is the enemy
• Musk appearance with Milei
• Protests weekly now
