      He is just one of the many compradores throughout the history of latin america. These people hate their countries and worship the US, that is why it makes sense in their head to sell everything to the US/EU, it is internalized racism. In Mexico we call them malinchistas.

        The beggars I encountered during my short time in Costa Rica gave me the impression that some in Latam might view westerners and the west in general as big ATM machines that can magically solve the poverty they endure if they just ask nicely and hard enough. Sadly they don’t realize that the average American can’t even be bothered to learn the name and location of Latin American countries other then Mexico, Brazil, Cuba and Vuvuzuela.

          Compradores, while being wealthy and supposedly educated, really do act as beggars. Their solutions are always bootlick the americans, ask for money and never about working.

      Despite all his rethoric, so far there has been no major changes on BR-ARG trade and diplo relations as far as I can tell from BR reporting. He backpedaled hard on the more insane stuff right after he won the election.
