Brazil Election today

Bolsonaro has not conceded and he shouldn't.   He won this.   Dominion machines at work again and media already out saying that the US right is saying brazilian voter fraud ahead of any claims of voter fraud.  They really had to get out there ahead of the story.... liars.

""He won this.""

Based on what,?

Bolsonaro is deeply unpopular in Brazil.  

Among other things he decreased environmental protections in the Amazon, he mismanaged their pension system, he raised the retirement age and increased contributions, his Cabinet was corrupt, he was extremely pro military dictatorship as a form of government, he tried to make Brazilians honor the anniversary of the 1964 coup that ushered in military rule in Brazil, he claimed “Liberty and democracy only exist when the armed forces want them to,” he totally mismanaged Covid,  he's an evangelist kook and he totally mishandled the economy.

Just because he's (extreme) right wing doesn't make him a sound choice and he's probably killed the chances of the right taking power in Brazil again for a very long time.

If there is any country that needs a left wing, environmentally focused politician, its the amazon , I hope his word is his bond

Bolsonaro is SO unpopular that he was elected by a majority of voters even after being stabbed in the abdomen and not being able to campaign. yeah. Bolsonaro is as unpopular as Trump.......with the media and with leftists.

WE NEED more young idiots gluing themselves to priceless works of art. We need more of them sitting in the road blocking traffic becasue that is SO helpful to the environment.

How's that environmentalism going in Venezuela. The starving people are eating everything they can get their hands on in the ENVIRONMENT...even the zoos.

THIS.....is going to be interesting. I wonder if at some point someone is going to call for Election Forgiveness or Election Amnesty.

Yes, Bolsonaro was stabbed BEFORE he became President. That was in 2018. Since then he's had 4 years in office and time enough for the peoples' opinion of him to change dramatically.

Like I said, just because he's of the (very far) right doesn't make him good. He's NOTHING like Trump.

I've listed SOME of the things that made his presidency a nightmare for the people of Brazil and if you think he's so great can you at least tell me why? What did he do during those 4 years that makes him such a great choice in your eyes and why you'd want to re-elect him?

Loss of the Amazon impacts the ENTIRE PLANET.  It seriously cannot be compared to a few moonbats gluing themselves to artworks.

They are furiously burning as much of the Amazon as they can before Bolsonaro leaves office and that's absolutely tragic!

During his presidency deforestation saw a 52% increase and lost an additional 8.5 million acres.   That's bigger than many countries.  You cannot compare that to idiots blocking traffic.  Thank God most of the people of Brazil care about this   ...   if the US doesn't.

Must brazil obey other environmentally whacked countries in preserving their JUNGLES, call them rainforests if you must. They clear this land so that farmers can grow crops and people have places to live. it is THEIR business. NOT ours.

Here's the translation from Portugeese to English.

Tweet translation: “Bolsonaro was elected with 65% of the vote, the final report will be out soon, there will be arrests, the president's silence torments the right but frightens the left. We are the last trench, we are the nation that will lead the rest of the world along the path of freedom”
