Milei praises Trump and Musk
At the America First Gala at at Mar-A-Lago, Milei praises Trump:
The world is a much better place, and the winds of freedom are blowing much stronger. [The election was] the greatest political comeback in all of history, defying the political establishment even at the risk to his own life.
And Musk:
I would like to thank the great Elon Musk for the wonderful job he has been doing to save humanity.
Milei also criticised unfair tax systems that caused “the redistribution of wealth at gunpoint”.
Trump says it is an “honour” to welcome him to Mar-a-Lago – and calls Milei “a MAGA person”.
The job you’ve done is incredible. Make Argentina Great Again… he’s doing that.
Trump: ‘We have a new star. A star is born – Elon!’
Trump praises Musk in his victory speech:
We have a new star. A star is born — Elon! He is an amazing guy. We were sitting together tonight. You know he spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania campaigning. Y’know he sent the rocket up two weeks ago, and I saw that rocket and I saw it coming down. When it left it was beautiful shiny white, when it came down it didn’t look so pretty, it was going 10,000 miles an hour and burning like hell. And I said, ‘What happened to your paint job?’ He said, ‘We’ve never made a paint job that can withstand that kind of heat’ …Only Elon could do this.
Musk responds to Peanut controversy

If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine’ Obi PNut Kenobi
