The defense of (Republicans) to (), with the promise of case being elected to the presidency of the Republic, became a left ammunition to explore in a possible campaign of the governor of the Planalto Palace in 2026.
According to parliamentarians and managers of and, parties of opposition to the Tarcisio government in the state, the promise of the governor attentive against popular will, sounds as admission of guilt and puts him in the sights of more radical pockets, contrary to the idea of a possible candidacy of former Bolsonaro minister.
“At the time. First act. Because I think all that is happening is absolutely unreasonable,” Tarcisio said on Friday (29) when asked if he would grant the pardon to Bolsonaro.
In June, the Senator (PL-RJ), the oldest son of the former president, who, to receive the support of the father, a presidential should not only grant him pardon, but fight with the (Supreme Court) therefore, if necessary.
The leftist parties estimate that the promise can lead to Tarcisio wear between voters more to the center in the political spectrum, as the last Datafolha showed that 61% of Brazilians would not vote for a candidate for the scammer’s performance.
For PSOL’s national president, Paula Coradi, Tarcisio’s promise, despite what was shown by the research, “demonstrates her complete disconnection with the concerns of the Brazilian population.”
“Declarations like this reveal that their main objective is to consolidate as the candidate for pockets, it costs what it costs. This makes the moderate facade collapse, exposing its true face: that of an authoritarian politician, with clear contempt for democracy,” he told the Sheet.
The leader of the PT bench at Alesp (Legislative Assembly of São Paulo), Antonio Donato (PT), said that “the more subservient to Bolsonaro, Tarcisio appeals to”.
On social network X, former Twitter, two of the ministers made criticism of Tarcisio’s speech. (Institutional Relations) presented the thesis that speaking in pardon would be a way of admitting that Bolsonaro would indeed have committed the crimes for which he is investigated-algo that the former president denies.
“By announcing that his first act if he were president would be to indulge Bolsonaro, Tarcisio confirms that his boss is guilty and that they do not respect the rule of law or justice,” Gleisi wrote on Sunday (31).
Minister Paulo Teixeira (agrarian development) said the statement “is just another toll that he [Tarcísio] pays to the Bolsonaro family. “
Although he publicly denies interest in competing in the presidency next year, Tarcisio has been treated as presidential by allies, entrepreneurs and presidents of right-wing and center right parties. In a conversation with bankers in July, he had already admitted the possibility of noting Bolsonaro if he was elected president.
The governor has already announced in his surroundings that only candidate for the Planalto Palace will be candidate if Bolsonaro Asks. However, the fact that it is treated as presidential by several sectors has, starting with Eduardo, son of Bolsonaro, who seeks to be the candidate of the right to the presidency in the absence of his father – which is ineligible, in house arrest and about to be tried by the scammer plot.
“Tarcisio has never helped you in the Supreme Court,” Eduardo to Jair wrote by the Federal Police on his former president’s cell phone. In the same exchange of messages, the former president’s son says the governor is “warming up to 2026”.
Eduardo also told his father that he worked to undo the “planted idea” by allies of the governor of São Paulo that “Tarcisio = Bolsonaro”.
For left-wing parliamentarians and leaders, the fact that the São Paulo governor promises the pardon, despite sounding as a support for the former president, can serve to ignite even more displeased pockets with the post of Bolsonaro’s political heir to which Tarcisio is raised.
