          She had the dead weight of a reviled family line and a truly shit-tier Pete Buttigieg level campaign strategy.

          The Americans could have backed someone who sucked less. Or just someone they could lean on more easily. Run some rich schlub like Sebastián Piñera of Chile who can just hold the bag for four years, while business continues to suck the life out of the state. But they had to back the woman who triggered the :maybe-later-kiddo: instincts in the native population.
