The current president is a young (36) socialist and his party was ousted because socialism sucks and turns out the students of the "student movement" that propelled him to president dont know what the **** they are talking about.
Kast is "right wing" but really just wants to decrease crime, control immigration and have a competent govt.
Quote:
Kast has been a consistent right-wing hardliner throughout his decades-long political career. He has proposed building border walls, deploying the military to high-crime areas, and deporting all migrants in the country illegally.
His victory marks the latest win for the resurgent right in Latin America. He joins Ecuador's Daniel Noboa, El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, and Argentina's Javier Milei. In October, the election of centrist Rodrigo Paz ended almost two decades of socialist rule in Bolivia.
