Why Was a Leftist Populist Elected the President of Mexico?

This is the first time in decades that the Mexican people have elected a leftist populist president.

What happened?

In this brief but important video, Ian Vásquez and Caleb O. Brown discuss key factors such as the U.S. role via the drug war and Trump's making the outgoing Mexican president, Enrique Peña Nieto, look weak.

  1. Interesting podcast. Who would think that Mexicans are sick of American governments?
    Americans go Fascist and the Mexicans go Commie.
    Too bad, the first official act the Mexican country did after voting in a commie was to lose in the World Cup. A sign or things to come?
