[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - fyi I am a democrat who is involved in my state committee.

The bad bunny half time show was disappointing.

We will never have a high functioning, high social trust, high public goods and quality public service model with becoming Latin America.

Democrats who reflexively support the latinification / Brazilification of the country are dooming the country to caudillo populism. [/quote]

Sorry, foreign policy specialist who has got to call BS here.

First of all, your takeaway from Bad Bunny's half time show is that more latinos in our country is a problem?  Because what I saw was a Latin many creating a vision for a better America.  Unity in love.  All that.  But you do you.

Secondly, if you're going to look at why Latin American governments have been dysfunctional, first, lets look at how many dictatorships, strongman governments, and yes, caudillo governments were created after the US shot (or otherwise disposed of) the elected, leftist official and then put a caudillo in their place.

Allende --> Pinochet
Sandino-->Somoza
Guatemalan President Arbenz ->. Carlos Castillo Armas

To name a few.
