Trump-Backed President Plays Concert Amid Crashing Economy

Argentinian president Javier Milei put his country’s problems on the back burner for a few hours to play a rock concert and promote a book in a sold-out stadium.

On Monday, the mutton-chopped, Libertarian leader of Argentina grunted his way through a set of mostly 80s rock covers to fans in Buenos Aires’ Movistar Arena. The set was performed to promote his new book, La construcción del milagro (“Construction of the Miracle”).
