Sounds like an alternate universe, by all means.

That note of support should have a great impact on Macri's next smooth moves. It really is comical, if it weren't for the suffering the people are having to endure. Have never seen anyone do that much damage to an economy so quickly.

Thanks for the info. on Alfonsín. As I mentioned, to outsiders, the politics there seem far more complex than anything going here. I was very surprised not so long ago to realize there are factions in the Peronists totally unlike each other. That was a big surprise.
