During a recent episode of Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough strongly criticized El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele for his derision towards U.S. laws and norms. Scarborough pointed out Bukele's social media jabs at U.S. lawmakers while cautioning that the El Salvadoran leader's close relationship with President Trump might lead to future complications, especially if Democrats secure significant wins in the upcoming midterms, potentially impacting foreign aid to El Salvador. Scarborough emphasized the importance of recognizing the realities of political dynamics, suggesting that Bukele's mockery of the U.S. could backfire.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, miraculously risen from the death camps' & torture', now sipping margaritas with Sen. Van Hollen in the tropical paradise of El Salvador!
I just the contempt the president of El Salvador has for the United States rule of law, the mocking of people in the United States.
It's as if somebody in El Salvador hasn't told him that political gravity still exists.
If the Democrats win big in the 2026 midterms and hold the pursestrings on foreign aid, Bukele's play could run into problems.
