Members of and members of the (PL-RJ) pre-campaign state that the former first lady (PL) will further influence (PL)’s political decisions after he is . At the same time, they say that the measure tends to intensify the father’s participation in his son’s activities.
The minister’s decision, from the (Federal Supreme Court), says that only Michelle and the former president’s doctors will have unrestricted access to the former president.
Even Bolsonaro’s lawyers, who can visit him every day of the week, need to make an appointment in advance and have limited hours from 8:20 am to 6:00 pm, with a maximum stay of 30 minutes. It is in this situation that Flávio fits in, signed up as a member of his father’s defense team.
Therefore, Bolsonaro supporters interviewed by the report say they hope that Bolsonaro will be more exposed to women’s political opinions than in this year’s elections.
Some decisions made by Bolsonaro in Papudinha have already been attributed to Michelle’s influence — for example, that of deputy Marcos Pollon (PL-MS) to run for the Senate. Michelle, in turn, must run for the House for the Federal District.
The former first lady is criticized by some of Flávio’s allies for not having embarked on his campaign. While part of the Bolsonaro supporters say they believe that her preponderance over Bolsonaro could worsen this split in the family, others claim that, on the contrary, Bolsonaro will now be able to act as a bridge and restore dialogue between his wife and son.
Moraes’ decision was granted to reinforce the request for domicile. Although the offensive for Bolsonaro’s transfer also involved Flávio and other politicians, the former first lady emerged from this episode strengthened, with a conciliatory image, according to parliamentarians.
As a result, Michelle’s allies fear that she will be even more attacked by Bolsonaristas and members of the clan as a reaction to her protagonism.
While the coexistence between Michelle and Bolsonaro will be significantly expanded, the coexistence between the former president and the senator is subject to the same rules as Papudinha. As a son, and not a lawyer, Flávio can visit his father on Wednesdays and Saturdays, from 8 am to 10 am or from 11 am to 1 pm or from 2 pm to 4 pm.
Some of Flávio and Bolsonaro’s interlocutors minimize the political effect of house arrest, arguing that the former president continues to have restricted communication, as occurred in Papudinha.
Moraes’ decision, they say, even restricts his previous situation by suspending additional visits to Bolsonaro for 90 days. Moraes states that the measure is necessary in the “recovery period of the person in custody, to protect the necessary controlled environment, mainly to avoid the risk of sepsis and control infections”.
As shown by SheetBolsonaro was interested in his electoral support, which is now vetoed until at least the end of May.
In interviews with TV channels, Flávio stated that Moraes’ decision is political and exotic as it only lasts 90 days, but it represents a first step towards justice. The senator says that the father is innocent and was tried by his enemies.
He complains, for example, about the restrictions imposed on lawyers, arguing that their access to the former president should be free. He also says that the restriction on visits has “nothing to do with the type of health problems” the father has.
“Clearly, there is a political bias in this decision to at least make conversations and political articulations difficult in the run-up to the elections,” he told CNN.
Hospitalized with bronchopneumonia since the 13th, Bolsonaro continues with no expected hospital discharge. He (Intensive Care Unit) on Monday night.
The worsening of the former president’s health was the main argument for requests for stay-at-home stays in recent days — the offensive involved Michelle, Flávio, the governor (Republicanos-SP), other court ministers and right-wing deputies.
Still according to Bolsonaro’s allies, Moraes’ decision will allow the former president’s health to recover, which is seen as a priority in relation to the campaign’s political articulations.
In any case, the general assessment is that Bolsonaro will have an improvement in his health and disposition when serving his sentence at home, which should consequently boost his political performance. There are those who bet that the former president will end up taking over, informally, the coordination of his son’s campaign, which is currently in charge of senator Rogério Marinho (PL-RJ).
On the other hand, parliamentarians state that there must be caution regarding Bolsonaro’s participation in his son’s campaign, otherwise he will be punished again with a transfer to Papudinha, given that Moraes’ decision is temporary.
