Trump's about to host Javier Milei, Argentina’s president, at the White House. This comes just after the U.S. agreed to help Argentina with a big $20 billion deal. The money will come from a currency swap with Argentina’s central bank, though the full details aren’t clear yet. For Milei, this deal could help avoid a financial meltdown and boost his party’s chances, especially after a big election loss last month.
Trump and Milei get along well, calling each other pals. Trump’s called him his “favorite president” and even invited him to his inauguration. But not everyone’s happy. Some Democrats say the bailout benefits wealthy investors and foreign governments, while U.S. farmers, hurt by China buying from Argentina, aren’t thrilled either.
