President Javier Milei also went on a rampage on social media, bashing Torres on X and even making a thinly veiled prison threat. Milei added that Torres’ stance implies an “advance against private property” and also bashed the other governors that backed him. Twenty-three of the country’s 24 governors have supported Torres’ stance (Tucumán governor Osvaldo Jaldo is the only holdout). “He told me, ‘Nacho, I recommend you shut up because we are going to aim our social media tanks at you’,” Torres said. Conversely, Milei’s security minister, Patricia Bullrich, who remains the current head of the PRO, opposed Torres.
