Claudia Sheinbaum’s presidency continues to captivate Mexicans 100 days into her term. Her approval rating soars at 80%, a four-point increase from last month. This surge reflects the public’s satisfaction with their electoral choice.

Uh oh, you get those kind of numbers as a socialist in Latin America and the CIA comes calling sooner or later... 😞

Didn’t her socialist predecessor also have very high approval numbers?

Thanks for doing the legwork for me! Looks like he was around 75% approval around his 100 day mark.

Yep. We didn't want neither the PRI nor PAN parties to win again! He did so well during his term despite the haters and Sheinbaum is his pupil. I have a lot of hope for us.

and accordingly so, they're sending in ron johnson as ambassador to destabilize mexico to get her and her party out of office.

ron johnson is the guy who destabilized central america in the past and he was trained at the school of the americas.

Thought you were referring to the Senator from Wisconsin and was confused for a second. Stupid generic-ass white guy names. The guy who was ambassador to El Salvador in the last Trump administration right?

el pais has a halfway decent article that doesn't list his war crimes on him: https://english.elpais.com/usa/2024-12-16/ronald-johnson-trumps-hawk-in-mexico.html
