Trump-backed Colombian politician Abelardo de la Espriella won the presidential election in Colombia, creating a big upset for the Left as they realize that even South Americans don’t want communist leaders to run their country.
The Spectacle Podcast hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay respond to the complaints from the Left of Espriella’s victory, such as Ben Norton’s political gobbledygook about the election as rigged by Israel and a “Neo-colonial assault” by President Trump and Marco Rubio. They also discuss the changes in Latin America since USAID was defunded, noting how six elections have been won by right-leaning candidates. Melissa and Scott discuss the importance of fair and honest elections that the Left disdains, and how stolen elections are how political violence foments. Tune in to hear their discussion!
