Once plagued by gang violence and dubbed the murder capital of the world, El Salvador has undergone a stunning transformation under President Nayib Bukele, earning praise from U.S. President Donald Trump for its bold security measures and leadership.<\/p>\n

Bukele\u2019s iron-fisted policies have slashed crime rates, turning a nation once synonymous with chaos into a model of stability that challenges the globalist narratives of Western media.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rift TV traveled to the heart of Central America to uncover the truth behind this rebirth, speaking exclusively with Herbert Esmahan, a seasoned voice in Salvadoran politics, who revealed the forces opposing Bukele and the quiet powerbrokers fueling his rise..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Right out of the gate, Esmahan confirmed what many Americans suspect: global elites use their media stranglehold to vilify leaders who prioritize national sovereignty.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re owned by as few as 10 corporations globally,\u201d Esmahan said of major media outlets. \u201cThey can send out a memo and initiate a disinformation campaign in an instant. It\u2019s called character assassination. It\u2019s what they try to do to anyone that opposes the globalist system.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bukele, by putting his people first, has become a prime target\u2014yet El Salvador\u2019s progress, visible to any visitor, defies their narrative.<\/p>\n

\u201cCome and see for yourselves,\u201d Esmahan urged, \u201chow this nation went from a dark murder capital to the safest in the Western Hemisphere.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow did El Salvador go from being a country that was known for murders to becoming a global example?\u201d he asked. \u201cIt\u2019s as simple as a David versus Goliath situation. We are a very small country that is very brave, that is very firm, and we have proven to the world that when you behave like this, you can be small in size, but if you\u2019re big in heart, you can make very important changes that have saved thousands of lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

WATCH:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n<\/p>

El Salvador\u2019s journey from gang-ridden despair to hope is remarkable.<\/p>\n

Once crippled by gangs like MS-13 and Barrio 18, the country saw homicide rates<\/a> hit 110 per 100,000 in the 2010s, fueling mass migration to the U.S.<\/p>\n

Bukele\u2019s 2022 crackdown<\/a>, incarcerating over 85,000 suspected gang members, cut homicides<\/a> to 2.4 per 100,000 by 2023, safer than Canada and many Western nations.<\/p>\n

Infrastructure surged, with new schools, hotels, and tourist hubs boosting the economy, while coastal property values soared tenfold.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Esmahan, a lifelong Salvadoran, witnessed this rebirth: \u201cWe\u2019re seeing a nation healed, its future restored from corrupt politicians who never cared about its people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bukele\u2019s ascent is a masterclass in populist disruption.<\/p>\n

A former publicist turned mayor of San Salvador in 2015, he founded the Nuevas Ideas party after being expelled from the leftist FMLN, winning the presidency in 2019 with 53 percent of the vote.<\/p>\n

His Territorial Control Plan halved homicides in his first year, and the 2022 state of emergency, triggered by a gang killing spree, solidified his \u201cmano dura\u201d approach.<\/p>\n

Despite human rights concerns over mass detentions, Bukele\u2019s approval ratings<\/a> exceed 80 percent, bolstered by his 2024 re-election with 84 percent.<\/p>\n

Esmahan praised Bukele\u2019s rejection of political labels: \u201cHe doesn\u2019t call himself right or left wing\u2014just a traditionalist, aligned with public sentiment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Facing opposition from Western NGOs, Esmahan pointed to a \u201cparasitic system\u201d promoting a \u201cfalse democracy\u201d for special interests.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe left and right serve the same purpose when sold out,\u201d he said. \u201cBukele hasn\u2019t sold out.\u201d<\/p>\n

His policies have dramatically curbed migration by fostering \u201cfirst-world opportunities\u201d at home, drastically reducing Salvadoran emigration to the U.S.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy leave your homeland when crime is a thing of the past?\u201d Esmahan asked.<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump has repeatedly lauded Bukele\u2019s leadership, recently endorsing El Salvador\u2019s controversial decision to abolish presidential term limits<\/a> in August 2025.<\/p>\n

At a July 2025 White House meeting, Trump called Bukele a tremendous president\u201d and praised their nations\u2019 cooperation in deporting alleged gang members to El Salvador\u2019s high-security prisons, stating, \u201cPresident Bukele has graciously accepted some of the most violent alien enemies into his nation\u2019s custody.\u201d<\/p>\n

The U.S. State Department, echoing Trump\u2019s support, defended the constitutional change as a \u201cdemocratically elected\u201d process, rejecting comparisons to dictatorial regimes.<\/p>\n

This stance, coupled with Secretary of State Marco Rubio\u2019s collaboration with Bukele on deportations and prisoner swaps, underscores El Salvador\u2019s role as a key ally in Trump\u2019s immigration agenda, despite global concerns over democratic erosion.<\/p>\n

El Salvador\u2019s revival under Bukele stands as a rebuke to its chaotic past and a warning to Americans facing our own national challenges.<\/p>\n
