Although his style would seem off putting, I would not discount him so readily. He is an economist with many published papers under his belt and has worked for the WEF. Whatever happens, hope the outcome is positive for Argentinians.

Sadly I don't think he cannot be trusted with credentials too much; he has been accused of plagiarism [1] and has promoted crypto ponzi schemes [2].
About his supposed academic papers; Scopus says his h-index is 0 and only seems to have 2 publications [3]. He might be claiming that for self published articles or something.
That's one way of putting it. He claims to receive political counsel from his dead dog through a medium.

So do I. I have family and friends who live or are from there. I like the country and its people.
That said, I doubt anything actually good will come out of this. Unfortunately, it wasn't very likely to be great if he had lost either though, so who knows...
