However, one must be careful. The paths of politics are winding and thorny. It is too early to make such an assertion. It is true that candidates need time to take a presidential stance, a figure that is built little by little, but everything will depend on the political and electoral landscape at that moment. No one can imagine the former head of state going against Milei, who will seek re-election, in case a Peronist comes to power. He knows that would not do his image any good. Figures from his inner circle insist that in such a scenario, the healthiest thing for Macri would be to retire from politics, something he has been trying to do without success for the last two years. In the middle of this, there are negotiations with more moderate sectors of the Argentine right to consolidate a pragmatic alliance that is less elastic than what “Juntos por el Cambio” was. Milei celebrates. At any moment, he could fall into the trap set by opposition or even allied sectors and end up losing support. Many downplay these issues, but it has already been seen how events can appear unexpectedly without warning and erode the government's image. After the elections, La Libertad Avanza demonstrated that it has its own ground, and even PRO's own legislators maintain a closer relationship with the current president. Thus, last Tuesday, despite being invited, the former head of state declined to attend an asado organized by PRO deputies themselves, evidencing an internal break in the yellow force. Macri seeks to mark his territory against Milei and even announced that in 2027 he will have his own candidate. Although he has other matters on his mind, he feels the path to a new term is clear. But there are two years to go, and anything can happen, so within his circle, there are those who, indirectly, tell him to be careful. Milei is gaining ground, positioning himself as an undisputed leader against both Peronism and Macri. A much better electoral result than expected, with the consequent gain in seats, puts the Milei administration in a strong advantage over the opposition, which seems to have lost ground. In fact, within Peronism, there are figures who already accept that the fiscal order of the accounts and the fall in the inflation index are variables with strong support from society. At least, that is what the first Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the government of former President Alberto Fernández made clear: the former official Guillermo Justo Chaves pointed out that there is support and appreciation for “the fight against inflation and the search for fiscal balance.” His words came in a context of analysis for the consolidation of a strong Peronism for 2027, which shows that even the harshest opposition to the National Government cannot diminish the importance of part of the economic model implemented in these first two years of the Milei administration. As if all the above were not enough, today Milei represents the change that was once led by former President Mauricio Macri, who no longer needs it. They tried to sustain it at all costs, but it was not possible. Today, Milei is confident. What happened with José Luis Espert is a testament to this. After being victorious in the legislative elections on October 26, President Javier Milei is shaping up for the next two years of government with a mantle of expectation regarding the norms and modifications he seeks to implement. Thus, he begins to map out strategies together with his Cabinet, planning the projects that will be sent, especially during the extraordinary sessions period, to the National Congress. Meanwhile, the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, holds meetings with the elected deputies. The idea is to explain to them how to defend the projects that the Executive will send in the parliamentary arena amidst a scenario of high polarization. The scenario could not be more promising for the National Government.
