Before the votes were counted, dictator presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro suffered his first and spectacular defeat: an uneventful event. serious, your choice. There was tension inside and outside of Brazil, often sparked by their fanatics, but nothing marred the normal voting process.
“And why defeat Reinaldo if you don’t know the results of the polls?”
Because he threatened that if the printed vote was not approved, the election would not be held. And these were not scattered conversations, just outbursts. He made hundreds of speeches against the polls, leaving the possibility of military intervention he would command in the air if his request was not met.
Still, millions of Brazilians went to vote. Not yet known: There are even signs that abstention may be lower than in previous elections. This has been proven to happen in brasucas residing abroad.
Will Bolsonaro infuriate the other defeat, the “Great Defeat”? We’ll find out later today. It is clear that this will be the healthiest for democracy. There can be no possible impartial judiciary that ignores the fact that Bolsonaro is less interested in re-election, that he is concerned with the impunity it guarantees him. Because?
If re-elected, Arthur Lira (PP-AL) or someone else in his class will become president of the Chamber should he experience setbacks. Petitions in favor of impeachment will remain in the drawer so that Centrão can keep him on a short leash. Even if one passes, it will take two-thirds of the House for the Senate to decide to initiate an impeachment process. The Secret Budget guarantees the purchase of votes.
Regarding the ordinary crime, the Attorney General would have to file a complaint. The Chamber, which was to be tried by the Supreme Court, would be summoned once again and the criminal case would be opened only with the approval of two-thirds, in which case the president would have to resign. And once again, trades would be made with the Secret Budget for the benefit of impunity.
What if Bolsonaro loses? In principle – but not necessarily; I won’t go into details now – investigations brought against him for a petty crime go to common justice in addition to any other investigations that may be brought; in this case, the federal one is given the nature of the crimes. And that’s what he wants to avoid at all costs.
At this point he was no longer interested in running the country – and would do even more harmful things in the presidency than the routine failures of the past four years. From that moment on, his obsession is getting out of prison.
The first defeat is given. Zero for democracy. But the game wasn’t over at 17:00 at the time of writing. It is unknown whether overtime will be appealed.
TO FINISH
And it should be noted: Bolsonaro and his extremists have already made it clear that if the president is reappointed, the main agenda is to circumvent the Supreme Court. In the coming period, the Chief Executive Officer will make two appointments to the court. If they hold power, the fascistoids plan to reform the court, increase the number of seats, give their “Myths” a majority now.
Then the already corrupt democracy will be wasted. It is no accident that Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orbán voiced his support for Bolsonaro. Donald Trump too. The coup is international today.
