That’s one way to look at it. The other is, he put an end to corruption. I guess I don’t consider ms13 members or affiliates, political opponents.

He removed them from the equation and the nation flourished. His people seem to approve.

Can’t say I know much about it. Sounds sketchy for sure. Considering the amount of corruption the country is known for, it’s tough to imagine some remnants of corruption don’t still exist, even after Bukele’s sweep.

But the accusation of government corruption from a previous government official just sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me.

For me, it’s simple. Signal to noise. Would I walk in the streets of San Salvador before Bukele? No.

Would I after? Yeah, definitely.

Former sadvisor to Bukele accuses Bukele government of corruption.

Dies in government prison.

Bukele says nothing.

Things that make you go, “Hmm.” 🤔

It looks bad on the surface, but truth is, you don't know fuck all about it, so stop soapbox moralizing
