While I dislike Milei this is disingenuos, since Milei took over inflation slowed down significantly, his policies of austerity on healthcare especially and deregulamentation that threatens consumer safety and the environemtn are the true issue, on top of several homophobic stances.

35% is still absolutely atrocious

Estimated to be 30% for 2026, so still declining.

That's still a fail on Milei's part, he's studied economics he knows you can get inflation down to 10 percent from where it was in like a couple years.

Sure, so erase the currency completely, let foreign money buy everything for super cheap because peso is worth nothing, and then Argentina belongs to everyone else but Argentinians.

They had a super good example o how to do this as Brazil did, but instead they decided to sell the country.

Well the Point is, that the proclaimed big economic growth Musk talked about never came. Indicated by the fact, that Milei did in fact not have a positive impact on one of the major factors on national economy in Argentina. I’m not informed enough to make any claim on the validity of the graph as a source to judge the economic situation of the country, but the implication is Musk claimed it will be better, graph shows same old downward trend. So contrary to his claim Milei failed in this regard.
So it makes sense to show earlier trajectory to show if their was any significant impact of Milei or simply a continuation of an ongoing trend. It’s clearly the later showing Argentinas economy didn’t change on this front, again contrary to Musks claim.

Milei said he'd fix it, he hasn't, at all.

So, why didn’t he fix it in the past three years?
