Too much potential in that country. Start with working on a British withdrawal of the Falklands. Turn it not a US penal colony for illegal immigrants for 20-50 years, administered by the Argentines. After 20 years it’s theirs. Win, win, win(brits save face + money).

If Argentina got their “Trump” they and Chile would be the economic powerhouse in the southern hemisphere. Maintain good relations with them and the communist juntas would crumble.

Macri has been pretty decent for Argentina. Venezuela needs to be reined in. Obama had done nothing while communist Maduro tightened control
