CNN host Abby Phillip discusses the election of Javier Milei in Argentina, characterizing him as a “far-right populist” and comparing him to Donald Trump.
She also explores the rise of conservative, populist governments around the world and the negative characterization of this phenomenon in the mainstream media.
“This phenomenon, this right-wing populism but really the emphasis on the populism here, rather than an import to the United States in some ways an export to the rest of the world as well,” claimed Phillip.
Milei has Progressive views on various social and political issues, but has captivated attention through a variety of antics.
The discussion also touches on President Trump’s populist appeal and the negative portrayal of his presidency in the media.
Meet Argentina’s new far-right, famous, Milton Friedman-loving leader: Javier Milei.
But underpinning his rise is anger. It's a phenomenon that's fueled far-right figures globally in Brazil, Hungary, Italy and here in the U.S. @secupp and @jaymichaelson join me to discuss. pic.twitter.com/uPfK3nfGnk
