Musk and Milei’s Chainsaw Maker Is Crafting Another for Trump
Mariano ‘Tute’ Di Tella, a fan of the Argentine president, crafts custom power saws in Buenos Aires. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was his childhood inspiration.
Mariano ‘Tute’ Di Tella needed to make a special delivery. The 45-year-old mechanic took the elevator down in his ordinary building, hopped on the Buenos Aires subway with his son Milo and headed downtown with a big bag.
They lugged it off the subway after more than a dozen stops and through the city center’s streets until Tute, as he’s known, and Milo arrived at the presidential palace, Casa Rosada. Inside the bag sat a custom-made, aluminum and bronze chainsaw that Argentine President Javier Milei would hand over to Elon Musk. Fuel not included.
