With little turnout, just in the week in which the first polls appeared that show him falling, the deputy Javier Milei He made his landing act in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, more precisely in Gerli, where he presented himself as a presidential candidate. The stadium of the El Porvenir club was too big for the self-styled “libertarian” and his followers. “When there is a right someone has to pay it,” he said, in line with recent statements by Court Judge Carlos Rosenkrantz.
In a space with capacity for 14,000 people, only regarding 1,500 gathered. The doors opened at regarding 6:00 p.m. and, before the main act, there was a show by the singer the dippy. In front of the stage, the militants closest to the deputy were dressed in leather jackets and black pants, imitating the look that the economist usually wears. Just following 9 p.m., Milei made her appearance, hugging her sister, Karina.
El Dipy, a tropical musician at the pole
The recital of El Dipy gave a recital, which aroused reactions from the public as cold as the climate that prevailed on the playing field. “Because we are free, he who does not clap his hands is a cat,” the singer bellowed before an audience that moved little and seemed distant in the face of such declamations. No one clarified whether the mention of the “cat” was a way to distance himself from Mauricio Macri, of whom he was shown to be a fervent supporter and even held a “summit” meeting with him not so long ago.
“Raise your hand those who break their asses working because they are free. I come because I like Javier (Milei) and I come to play for free. Thanks for coming, we know that it is very cold. We had the bad luck that there were 17 patrol cars to not let the buses pass. He who does not clap is a communist. He who does not jump is a communist“, shouted the interpreter from the stage.
Milei traded economics for (anti) politics
The deputy of La Libertad Avanza dispatched with his usual anti-political script: “I got into the filthy swamp of politics so that Argentina might once once more be a power. The formula is capitalism and hard work”, said. Unlike other presentations, this time his speech was only 20 minutes long and had no aspirations of becoming a class of outdated economic theory, but instead concentrated on fomenting the hatred of the indignant.
His followers howled “he feels, he feels, Milei president” and the economist defended himself once morest the questions he has been receiving and became strong in enunciating a messianic speech: “They tell us any kind of slander because it is us once morest everyone, the jet-setting politicians, prebendary businessmen, journalists in envelopes and trans unionists. We are the ones who have come to change history.”
Contrary to the contempt with which they always refer to those attending Peronist events, many of those present arrived in buses that were parked around the stadium. The main starting point was the Retiro station, a few meters from the Kavanagh building, where Carlos Maslatón lives, one of the far-right’s best-known “pointers.”
Just in case, through the networks they ensured that each one paid their ticket and that no public funds were used. A more than necessary clarification, following the scandal unleashed by the use of airline tickets for party activities.
