How much can a person’s life change in seven days? Or, better said: how much impact can a presidential candidacy suffer in just one week? In the case of Javier Milei it would seem that enough. The thing is Since NOTICIAS published the preview of the book “El Loco” in its latest edition, only bad news happened in the libertarian’s campaign. From the shocking revelations contained in the text that Editorial Planeta has just released to a constant increase in complaints about sales of candidacies in his space and Viviana Canosa’s public fight with him, among other episodes. These are moments of fury for La Libertad Avanza and for its leader.
noises.
The first rung of the path of the deputy started, precisely, in these pages. The preview of the book included totally unknown topics about Milei’s life, especially in what has to do with her occult esotericism: the truth about the dog-son that died, the clones of the dog that she had made, the sessions with a medium and telepaths with whom he went through this process and that finally led to conversations with the “number ONE”, as he calls God, the one who revealed to him that he had a divine “mission” for him that was nothing less than getting into politics and not stopping until he became President.
The cover of the magazine became an event from the day it hit the streets. Dozens of media from all over the country raised it, a fact that even led Milei himself to have to be asked about the issue in the four interviews that has been on television since then (two in TN, one in LN+ and another in A24). On all occasions, the economist repeated the same thing: “Let them write what they want, I’m not talking about operations.”
However, His followers in the networks were less contemplative with the author of the book, the same one who writes this note. On Twitter and Instagram they shared unusual fakes and attacks against him, where he was accused of being “the partner” of Carlos Maslatón -an influencer who knew how to be an ally and is now his main critic-, where he was called “silly” or even in even more ridiculous messages in which he was denounced for being an alleged animal abuser and having a “dark past”. “He was repeatedly denounced by his own family,” read those messages. These are practices that, moreover, are often repeated in the world of libertarians in the networks. A famous television host, in fact, often tells that when he decides to speak critically of Milei on the channel where he works, he has to “turn off Twitter for a day” because of the amount of insults he receives.
Pointed.
To this was added something that had already appeared in the past, but now gained much more notoriety. They are the repeated complaints for the alleged sale of positions within the space of La Libertad Avanza. The one who put the issue on the front page of the public debate was Juan Carlos Blumberg, in an interview with Facundo Pastor. “They ask for 50 thousand dollars for a position as a councilor,” he denounced. At the beginning of June, NOTICIAS had reported the case of Silvina Soria, the hot leader of Milei in Avellaneda who said that she had left the space because they were asking for “60 thousand dollars to be a candidate for mayor.”
Also added were the words of the frustrated candidates, María Laura Montenegro, who from Villa Gesell denounced the same methodology to Perfil.com (“they demanded $30,000 from me”), from Martín Uruguareña in Tigre (“they squeezed me, they wanted to make me hand over the ready to Sergio Massa”), and Matías Cerdá in Vicente López (“they closed with Massa and Milei knows it”), among others.
The one who also spoke was Mario Russo, who was the libertarian’s campaign strategist in 2021, the man who brought him the concept of “the caste”, which he took in turn from the Italian “5-star” movement. “Milei never cared about consolidating a party to articulate the interests of his voters. Milei only cares about being him. The kids from the Libertarian Party made a huge effort and Milei betrayed them all, ”he said in an interview with Crisis magazine.
As if that were not enough, Viviana Canosa, the journalist who was historically close to Milei, dedicated a very harsh editorial to her from her program on LN+. “What surprises me the most is that Milei does not deny Massa. It is something very serious, because Massa is the caste, ”said the host, who even showed private conversations with the libertarian on air. Milei is like Massa: she doesn’t “get one more mess”.
Doubts.
All these incidents relate to the great underlying theme. How much will Milei hit this week of fury? Will it translate into a drop in her votes? In her scheme they deny it. “These are red circle discussions. Whoever is going to vote for Javier is not interested in who is his candidate in a mayor’s office or if a driver criticized him. We are going to be above 20 percent ”, they say from inside.
It seems an optimistic version. And there are also those in his party who see that “the bullets are beginning to enter.” “It all came together. The book, the complaints, the Canosa thing that hits our electorate a lot. Javier thought he was untouchable and now he realizes that they are hitting him from all sides, ”says one of his operators. How many more weeks like this can “the Lion” endure?
