In his editorial on Monday The Observer 107.9the journalist Luis Majul It opened with a question from the President himself: why the majority of the media do not spread the good news. And he offered some of what the Chief of Staff Manuel Adorni presented during the week.
The Justice revoked the precautionary that suspended Labor Modernization and declared its full validity. The Government sent to Congress the Electoral Reform to eliminate PASO—estimated savings of 200 million dollars—, make party financing transparent, and implement the Clean File. March set a historical record for exports: 8,645 million dollars were received, 30.1% more than the previous year. AND Pluspetrol presented within the framework of the RIGI a project of 12,000 million dollars to produce 100,000 barrels per day. However, this news does not dominate the headlines or reach the streets due to factors as diverse as an economic recession that does not show the light at the end of the tunnel or corruption scandals such as those of Adorni or the Libra scam. If the good news is not enough, well, it is because it coexists with other news that is bad or downright terrible.
But the heart of the editorial was the closing. Majul posed a hypothesis that few in the opposition dare to state out loud: What if that mix of determination and overreactions makes Milei finally get her way? Because the President accumulates what in any other government would have been material for a terminal crisis: diplomatic disagreements, public fights with allies, statements that his own officials must come out to clarify.
An explanation that circulates among analysts is that the voter who elected him in 2023 does not measure Milei with the same yardstick as his predecessors. I would not demand discursive coherence or diplomatic manners, but rather that inflation does not return to three digits and that the course does not reverse. In that framework, outbursts do not necessarily matter.
The opposition’s bet that errors would do the job alone is showing its limits. It is the question that, for now, classical analysts have not yet fully answered.
