Javier Milei He came out to respond to Cristina Kirchner, after the strong speech that the former president gave in Quilmes with criticism of the libertarian. “People are starving for the model that you defended for decades”the current president crossed it.
Milei spoke about one of the phrases that Cristina said to question him. “60 percent may have voted for you, but if later people starve and get fired from work, what’s the point?” was what she said at the opening ceremony of the Néstor Kirchner microstadium in Quilmes, where She was accompanied by camper Mayra Mendoza.
People are starving because for decades you defended a model that was based on spending without limits and counterfeiting money to cover the hole. The result is a destroyed country with 60% poor,” the President wrote on his social networks, an hour after the closing of CFK’s speech.
And he completed with a direct answer to Kirchner’s question: “What is the use of what we are doing? It serves to rebuild the country that you destroyed… VLLC”.
Already in the middle of Cristina’s speech, Milei had retweeted a message that she published earlier this Saturday. “EXPLAINING THE NERVOUSNESS…”, she wrote, in capital letters, to comment on the graph on the trend and projection for the 2025 legislative elections, a point that has already been marked on her calendar towards the future of the Government.
The projection shows that “Milei’s space” would be chosen by 52.2%, while “the Peronism of CFK, A. Kicillof and S. Massa” would be supported by 37.9%. 9.8% include the item “other spaces”, in a scenario that – according to the projection, attributed to the firm Aresco – is one of polarization.

The former vice president took aim at the current president and assured that people “don’t make ends meet.”
In her speech, the former vice president dedicated several criticisms to Milei’s government. She said that she “does not have a stabilization plan,” she called him an “anarcho-colonialist” and demanded a “change of direction.”
“No matter how much the President gets angry, mocks, makes faces. He has no stabilization plan. It is not a technical issue, it is a political and social issue, society and businessmen have to believe in that to be effective. This government does not have it: “It’s just an adjustment plan,” he emphasized.
Furthermore, he treated the President as “dogmatic” and gave him advice. “When the head doesn’t fit in the hat, don’t make the head smaller. Make the hat bigger. It’s that way,” Cristina pointed out.
Milei was not the only one to question Cristina for her act in Quilmes
The former vice president also got heavily involved in the Peronist internal movement: she was a disciplinarian, she left questions for the government of Alberto Fernández and asked “not to discuss how to make things better for the leadership, but for the people.”
“In 2019 they elected us because they remembered how they had been until 2015. The problem was when someone thought that they had voted for us for good manners. When you think that and leave aside everything else, we ended up the way we ended up. I take charge, I don’t avoid the bulk, but I always go head-on: I am not one of those who throw the stone and hide my hand”, was one of the most forceful passages about the experience of the Frente de Todos.
He said it in the midst of the internal conflict that appears in Peronism, with La Cámpora (and leaders such as his partner, Mayra Mendoza) on one side and Axel Kicillof, on the other (close to some mayors).
In this regard, two leaders of Buenos Aires Peronism published ironic messages on their social networks, while Cristina was speaking. The first to do so was Fernando Gray, mayor of Esteban Echeverría, who had a well-known confrontation with Máximo Kirchner, whom he faced for control of the Buenos Aires PJ.
“Soup again!!!”, Gray wrote, in front of a plate of soup and with his back to a television that was broadcasting the Quilmes event and had the former vice president in the foreground.

Juan Zabaleta, former community leader of Hurlingham, ironically joined the message that Fernando Gray (Esteban Echeverría) published earlier. “Do you want to continue drinking soup?” wrote Zabaleta.
He was followed, synchronized, by Juan Zabaleta. “Do you want to continue drinking soup?” Said the former community leader of Hurlingham – where he had his internship with camper Damián Selci – and with a past as Minister of Social Development in the government of Alberto Fernández.
In his post he posted a video showing him maneuvering a ladle and serving soup. “Enough soup, Flavia. Do you want to continue drinking soup?” he asked. “Nooo,” his video partner responded. “Let’s go!” Zabaleta celebrated.
