WARNING: INCESSANT GLOATING FROM ROBERT INCOMING.On this episode of the Smoothie podcast, Robert gloats about his election predictions coming true, while Joseph tries to keep his grip on sanity through the whole ordeal. Our hosts make a news recap of the most important events that happened in Latin America over the last week.We talk about how tragedies in Mexico might bring AMLO and Trump closer together and a lovely meeting between AMLO and Alberto Fernandez might be profiling a nascent economic and geopolitical partnership (Yes, we can be serious sometimes).Also, AMLO and Fernandez pivot farther from Venezuela than ever before, Nayib Bukele kicks out Venezuelan diplomats and recognizes Guaido as the legitimate president of Venezuela. Maduro looks more and more like the unpopular kid in a high school cafeteria than a dictator. Nobody wants to sit with him :( DISCLAIMER: The views, information, or opinions expressed on The SMOOTHIE Podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not represent those of the faculty or staff of Florida International University.
