Since it's so close, we shall see what happens, Bolsonaro made many indications he won't step down if voter fraud is likely,.

What is it with these South American countries and their taste for a destructive combination of socialism and wokeism? I guess I shouldn't wonder, since the West is into the same crap. China's probably going to rule the world before my youngest hits adulthood—that is, if the left doesn't steer us into nuclear holocaust or mass-famine and energy blackouts beforehand.

With over 5 million ballots disqualified it’s shocking that American liberals are so quick to declare a winner. What ever happened to counting every vote?

Bolsonaro has no other option, Brazil is surrounded by left and extreme left countries ready to attack, any attempt by Bolsonaro to resist.. Lula is the favorite of the USA, RUSSIA EU AND CHINA ... bolsonaro is alone and if he tries to resist, he will leave dead and humiliated.

Infamously, the US is known for destroying socialist Latin American countries and meddling in their affairs.

Idk much about Brazil’s politics but Bolsonaro is just another reactionary politician.

And of course voter fraud will ALWAYS be likely when a Fascist loses, right? We all know how this works, we saw it in 2020 with Trump's Big Lie. We will see it trotted out again in 2024 if the right wing candidate loses.

The USA looks more and more like Brazil every day, and it really isn't surprising - we've always had a lot more in common with the South American banana republics than we do with modern Western nations.

Actually the US looks more and more like Cuba and Venezuela every day. Jailing your political opponents, ignoring the law, these are the trademarks of the Biden regime and its supporters.
