Milei Enraged by Advisor's Interruption on Live TV

The Chief of Staff, Guillermo Francos, commented that President Javier Milei was annoyed by the interruption of his advisor Santiago Caputo during an interview on Canal TN. Francos expressed that Milei would have learned the lesson that no one is superpowered and that everything has limits, thus setting a precedent.

Francos emphasized that Milei was angry with Caputo for interrupting without prior agreement with the program's host and also for doing so for an insignificant reason. According to the official, what the President said did not create any complication and, therefore, Caputo's intervention was misguided.

Regarding Milei's consultation with the Minister of Justice, Francos stated that it is logical for him to seek the opinion of his trusted man on justice matters, although he clarified that the minister cannot be his personal lawyer. He considered that Caputo's interruption was an excess in his attempt to be prudent, but he doubted that the advisor would resign due to the President's annoyance, as that decision belongs solely to Milei.
