Even in a very very unlikely situation this isn't what it looks like on surface, you just don't do stuff like this if you're economically literate and want people to come to invest in your country. Am I surprised? No. Disapointed? Yes. But it's good to see the red flags sooner rather than later. And Max? He's doing well, clowning around, good for him. But who would ever trust this guy really?
i told everyone many years ago here and everywhere i write messages, that the bukele cult is ridiculous. hardly anyone listened. it looked more like a variation of the jones plantation. the 'coronation' video of his second 'inauguration' is so absurd that it makes any banana republic parody look real. el salvador is a poor third world country with most people uneducated and even illiterate. putting hundred thousand people in prison (many innocent among them) without due process does not solve any problems mid- and long term. it is dangerous to live there. anything can happen. a ticking time bomb. do not fall for propaganda.
