trump bait and switch

I think we're from the same generation and would disagree that there was any sleight of hand. With all due respect I think you misunderstood or misinterpreted what the US committed to and how swap programs work. It was very clear to me what they were trying to accomplish and they stood behind their promise until it wasn't necessary any longer.
This seems to be the case. In the end I don't know how many voters were really affected by what Trump did. Maybe I am wrong.
It seems to be also about China and US wanting to take some more control over China's dominance in the region.

That is a good video, I was bracing myself for one of those whacko conspiracy theories but I thought he got the overall story right.

I'm not a big fan of Obama's but I disagree with Bessent's criticism that he missed the LatAm opportunity. Obama took office with the GFC in full swing and all anyone cared about was stabilizing the economy for his first term, and any foreign policy initiatives were about mending fences after going to war with Iraq under false pretenses. There just wasn't much of an appetite for meddling in other countries with taxpayer dollars. China wasn't as big a threat then either.
 
great vidio. i understand everything he said but now have an explanation on how it happened. the us dollar as the main currency has been waining for along time. the tariffs and sanctions have caused countries to trade amongst themselves with their own currencies. been going on during trump 1 and increaseing during trump 2. like the lessons i learned in argentina. put an obstacle in front of business they will find a way around it. hopefully its not too late. russia india iran china have been working around it for the last 4 years. wake up us. again thanks for the video
 
so lets recap this. the us promises 40 billion before the election. in reality they have no money in the game through a fund that is supposed to help forgein countries in finanial crisis. they plege 40 billion before the election. lla wins. the peso goes up temporarily and the market goes 30 percent. besset and his friends get to cash out on bonds they bought for 25 cent on the dollar. milei wins and so does bessets friends. as stated by bessit the us did not lose money. looks like after they bought 2 billion the peso went up allowing them to sell at a profit. all this is supposed to get the yuan out of your banks. the us dominace on trade currency has been waning for a long time.if you trade with the us you need to use the dollar. outside of that, you lost your dominance. so johnny come lately thinks he can make a difference in argentina with a profit only for the hedge funds. sorry i have been following this for along time. slide of the hand and the financial people win. tell i am wrong. i am not adraid to admit i am wrong. respect all opinions
