The parallels between thugs, Trump and his buddy Jair Bolsonaro, are many.

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/21/world/americas/...

-More than a year before Brazil’s election in 2022, Mr. Bolsonaro began sowing baseless doubts about the security of the nation’s voting machines, warning that he could only be defeated if they were rigged in his opponent’s favor.

-... the police are seeking criminal charges against Mr. Bolsonaro himself, along with three dozen of his allies, over a broad plot to stage a coup to keep him in power after he lost the 2022 presidential election to Mr. Lula."

-Mr. Bolsonaro and his supporters have been quick to downplay the severity of the situation, chalking it up to “leftist” political persecution by the judiciary.

-Mr. Bolsonaro, perhaps trying to follow Mr. Trump’s road map, seems to want to stage his own political comeback, signaling that he intends to run in Brazil’s next presidential election in 2026.

-a fifth of those surveyed said they would vote for Mr. Bolsonaro in the next presidential election even though

-Brazil’s top federal prosecutor must now decide whether to pursue the case. If he does, Mr. Bolsonaro could eventually end up in handcuffs.

-Even if Mr. Bolsonaro stands trial, it may not be enough to tarnish him in the eyes of his most fervent supporters, according to Mr. Kerche. “Bolsonaro could do whatever he wanted, and they would continue to support him.”

If JB works the media like Trump, and if the Brazilian Supreme Court bends to the will of the violent right, he could pull a Trump in '30 or whenever he gets to run again.

---Former President Jair Bolsonaro of Brazil oversaw a broad conspiracy to hold on to power regardless of the results of the 2022 election, including personally editing a proposed order to arrest a Supreme Court justice

--Their efforts included spreading disinformation about voter fraud, drafting legal arguments for new elections, recruiting military personnel to support a coup, surveilling judges and encouraging and guiding protesters who eventually raided government buildings, police said.

--The court order unsealed on Thursday also details a meeting in July 2022, three months before the election, in which Mr. Bolsonaro ordered top government officials and military leaders to spread claims of voter fraud, despite a lack of evidence. “From now on, I want every minister to say what I’m going to say here,” Mr. Bolsonaro said at the meeting, according to a recording obtained by police.


America is truly the land of opportunity, where any felon/rapist/fraud wit enough money can grow up to become President.

Bolsonaro might have trouble.

He doesn't have YOU and other out of touch 401K'ers trying to get him elected the way you did for Trump - twice.

I guess Trump pays you more than Bolsanaro can.

IN the meantime it's considered a blessing that Lula if back in.

*giggle* as usual you Sheeple don't see the decline.

A mindless and false response typical of the MAGA cult..
