1.3%! Head for the hills before she does something to make it worse.
In a recent poll, the president of Peru, Dina Boluarte, chalked up a 1.3% popularity score… making her somewhat less popular than head-hunting (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4331436/posts).
Ms. Doluarte was running for vice-president when her running mate was kicked off the ballot for corruption, leaving her in the presidential slot.
The mystery is, who the dickens voted for her? Think about that 1.3% popularity score. The Edsel did better than that. So do clothes moths. Peru’s political science landscape must be worse than a hall of mirrors.
Once upon a time Doluarte advertised herself as a communist. Then she took it back. Either way, fooey.
We’ll just have to wait and see what happens next.
I’ve never understood why the Latin American countries are so messed up. Is it the Roman Catholic Church allowing syncretism with pagan customs (think “Day of the Dead”).
(I think I’ll sit this one out.)
