    Im not familiar enough with the term “Defeateism” to be sure on my answer, but just from Google definition, It is rather the only way Argentines have to vote, but this time there’s at least hope since Milei is conpletely New, past Elections were completely defeateism as all candidates were already in power and were for sure bad, it was picking your poison 100%

    I’d even say that the biggest driving factor for Milei’s success is that he’s new.

    By the way, you said how you dont want Argentina to fall under totalitarism with a Populist that refuses to cede Power, you are describing exactly Kristina Fernandez on 2015 who refused to even stand in the same room to pass the Symbols of Power to the elected opossition Mauricio Macri, time again a Left Politician

      She may have rudely skipped the ceremonial handoff but she ceded power. That’s a far cry from refusing to which is the threat I meant.

        No she didnt ced the Power, justice had to intervene and a Provisional President (that lasted 12 hours) had to do it instead of her, good thing our constitution explicitly extinguishes Presidential Power the exact moment the clock hits 00:00 their last day of charge, or else?

        I know that you meant something more serious, but to our constitution there isnt more serious than this

          I did not know she actually refused. Dick move but smart for the constitution to stipulate that.
