5. Argentina's Milei (a Trump favorite) has been doing the same thing - but the 1% like him, so it's ok

Milei violently broke up a peaceful mass protest against his power grab this June.

While doing so, they sent goons (wearing 'Anonymous' masks) to set fire to news vans - something the correspondents themselves noted was the obvious work of provocateurs.

And of course arrested scores of protestors - holding many for weeks with no charges (b/c they knew that charging them could, in court, expose the fact they set the fires themselves).

Meanwhile, Argentina has collapse into a deep depression - a veritable Mileise.

Trump intends to bail that little Chucky doll out if he gets back into office.
