...Trumpedo plans to extend a $20 Billion swap line to Argentina and stands ready to buy the country's foreign bonds to subsidize the failures of asshat Javier Milei.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, "All options for stabilization are on the table," including "intervening in Argentina's current fiscal turmoil with purchases of Argentine pesos and dollar-denominated government debt among other forms of support."
Your tax dollars at work.

The Mexican peso crisis precipitated a global currency crisis.
This thing in Argentina is simply Trump propping up a buddy.

wzambon, quoting a grayling, either Jedi or a dopple: Yet you and Rubin were fine with a Mexico bailout under Clinton.
The U.S. contribution was part of a larger, coordinated international aid package totaling nearly $50 billion, which also included support from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Mexico was required to pledge its oil export revenues as collateral for the U.S. loan in 1995, and the country fully repaid the loan with interest by January 1997, three years ahead of schedule.
But thanks for playing, Jedi or his dopple.

If you’re an incompetent foreign leader who sucks up to Trump,
you can get $20 billion from U.S. taxpayers while Trump is cutting U.S. children's food stamps & health care.

Ayup, just like his dumping on Brazil is because they had the nerve to prosecute their version of Trump, for trying to overthrow their constitutional government.
Praise Trump...Praise Trump...Praise Trump

Then let it go.
Well known I'm all for shit hitting the fan especially in your hemisphere.
It was Rubin and Clinton and 401K Goldman Sachs and others who got investors and America embroiled in that shit anyways so of course the same people used their Treasury office to get out of the mess too.
No worries to me.
I don't pay taxes, I don't care where the money goes ;)

Trump bailing out Argentina with $20 Billion of US taxpayers money really raises questions about the time Clinton lent money to Mexico which was fully repaid with interest.

However, the 'taxpayer' deserves to be cheated and stolen from and for that I am most pleased.

Trump gives $20 BILLION to Argentinas failed, far-right gov't, as MAGA voters lose their healthcare. Is this what karma looks like?
Three rural clinics in Virginia are already closing this year as a direct result of Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill...
