Former U.S. President Donald Trump and U.S. conservatives are embracing Argentina's new president-elect, Javier Milei, who has alarmed world leaders with his far-right populism. While Trump expressed interest in attending Milei's inauguration, logistical hurdles make it unlikely. Several Republican House members plan to attend, and there have been discussions about inviting Milei to address the chamber. Prominent right-wing figures, including Ben Shapiro and Elon Musk, have rallied behind Milei, viewing his presidency as an opportunity to deepen U.S.-Argentina ties and counter the leftward shift in Latin America. Milei's campaign promises, such as shuttering the central bank and cutting government agencies, resonate with conservatives in Washington. Both Milei and Trump share a disdain for governing institutions, affinity for conspiracy theories, and a pro-business platform. Democrats have also reached out to Milei, and the Biden administration has expressed interest in working with him.
