President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador, credited with driving down gang violence in the Central American nation, said he has been re-elected. The 42-year-old took to social media and said he had won 85% of the vote. Preliminary results later showed him winning 83% with 31% of votes counted. His popularity has soared following a crackdown on crime that has transformed El Salvador from one of the most violent countries in the world to one of the safest in Latin America.

NEW: El Salvador President Nayib Bukele is set to obliterate the competition in El Salvador’s election, gathering over 80% of the votes so far (Reuters). Bukele is just 42 years old, is pro-God, pro-Patriotism and has waged total war on gangs. Here was a speech that Bukele gave to the El Salvadoran military. No wonder why they love him: “We have been in this war against gangs for 8 months. Thank God we are already winning. This is a very surprising victory that is close enough to make it clear that the glory is for God and what belongs to God.” “We, human beings, have the joy of being instruments of God, all of us to bring peace, freedom and happiness to the Salvadoran people and we are the instrument to heal this Earth. Each of you are an instrument of God to do so.” “Peace is not achieved by signing agreements between corrupt people, sharing power among murderers. Peace is built with work, sweat, effort and the courage that you and your brothers in the police have.” “You must have something to be able to know that you are part of something greater than yourself and that it’s worth risking your life for that purpose that is more important than yourself alone.” “It’s values. Values such as bravery, courage, strength, discipline, Patriotism, honor and loyalty. Love for one’s neighbor are fundamental values of human society but they are values that are increasingly being lost in the world if you watch international news.” “You will see how the most important values that human beings have, honor, loyalty, bravery, courage, love for others, are precisely the values that we are losing each day and that is why you can see societies that seemed to have already achieved it are now degrading because they are losing the values that made them great.” “These values were probably not strong in this land but were strong in other lands.” “That is why those lands grew and became great but they are losing those values now. On the contrary, in El Salvador the values that were previously degraded in our country are now the most important.” “Just take a look at yourselves, young men and women who have all these values. How will a nation not rise up with values like these?” “How could a nation not rise up that puts God first and then puts in the hard work and effort with these kinds of values.” – Collin Rugg

- Remember when they told us that mass arresting criminals in El Salvador was a ThreatToDemocracy? 87% of El Salvadorans just voted for it. – End Wokeness
- George Soros clearly has not helped anyone in El Salvador get elected. Imagine if we elected people in Chicago or Philadelphia or NYC or San Francisco that would do this? Those cities don’t have to be the way they are. – Wall Street Silver

How did Nayib Bukele win so much of the El Salvadoran vote? Firstly, he made it safe by crushing the crime lords, jailing gang members en masse and enforcing the law to turn what was once the continent’s deadliest nation into the safest. He did what many said was impossible, and weren’t willing to do: rounding them up and putting them all behind bars. Law and order. – Ian Miles Cheong
