This is who he wants to give US$20,000 million to

“This is who Donald Trump wants to give him $20 billion of our money while guts healthcare of Americans in their country,” said the representative of Massachusetts, one of the 14 signatories of the harsh letter addressed to the president last week in which they demanded that he “immediately stop” assistance to Milei.

Warren’s publication cites a post by the AFP agency in which it is stated that “Milei pretends to be a rock star while the Argentine economy collapses” and emphasizes that the Argentine president headlined “a concert in Buenos Aires to celebrate the launch of a book that he hopes will revive his declining fortunes.”

Criticism from the Democratic wing of Trump’s assistance to Argentina

The senator’s criticism comes at a time when Argentina’s economic team, led by the minister Luis Caputo, is in Washington to move forward with financial aid that could include a currency swap for US$20 billion, as anticipated by the Treasury Secretary. Scott Bessent.

To the words of warren It was preceded yesterday by criticism from one of the top representatives of the Democratic party in Congress, Chuck Schumer, who had questioned Trump for negotiating aid for “rescue” to Argentina, while the federal government is in closed shutdown due to lack of agreement on the budget.

“Trump really wants us to believe that there is not enough money to fix ACA (Affordable Care Act) health care premiums, there is not enough money for air traffic controllers, but somehow there is $20 billion available to bail out Argentina?!,” he wrote in his account on Trump.

Previously, warren I had written another harsh post about possible help to Argentina. “Argentina reached an agreement with China that harms US soybean producers already crushed by Trump’s tariffs. Now Trump wants to send US$20 billion of HIS taxes to rescue his political ally in Argentina. America first? Rather, Trump first“, he published making a play on words with America First.

Bessent received at the beginning of the week Caputo, along with Santiago Bausili, holder of the BCRA, and part of the Argentine team to advance the negotiations. In that sense, he highlighted that they will continue with the “productive discussions about the various options that the Treasury has prepared to support Argentina’s solid policies.”

Until now there have been no details about the real scope of assistance to the Argentina. Although the possible use of a swap, It has not yet been confirmed by the parties and the instruments that could be used are unknown. Representatives of the International Monetary Fund also participated in the negotiation. Its managing director, Kristalina Georgievastated that he expects definitions “shortly” on the new international assistance package.

With a hopeful tone, Georgieva left open the possibility that the link with the organization will enter a new stage. “This is not the first programbut if I put on my optimist hat, Maybe you can say that it could be the last IMF program with Argentina”, he expressed.

“Donald Trump gave $20 billion to this idiot”

The award-winning American writer of “narcothrillers” and detective novels Don Winslow He also got into the discussion about the American president’s help to the Argentine president. On his “X” account, he replicated a video of the show in the Movistar Arena with a harsh message: “Donald Trump gave twenty billion dollars to this idiot.”

The successful author, 71 years old, before devoting himself to literature, worked as a private detective and screenwriter. In 2021, he won the Pepe Carvalho award for crime novels. I had recently reposted a post by American politician Neera Tanden: “Someone must explain the reason for cutting USAID aid but rescuing Argentina from its own crazy policies.”

Winslow’s post was echoed in Argentina and was shared by several local writers such as Sebastián Robles, Hinde Pomeraniec and Marcelo Figueras. The latter wrote: “You have to be very, very stupid to surprise an American accustomed to Donald Trump’s antics.”
