The diversionary joke staged by the pre-candidate, where he succeeded, is, as we know, intended to divert attention from the central piece of the scandal.
Flávio had already demonstrated his unpatriotic cunning by promising, if elected, to contemplate American ambitions to control strategic rare earth reserves – those of Brazil.
Escorted by Eduardo, a defector brother, he decided to reinforce the foreign power’s proposal. It was successful. The USA, as expected, announced the folly. See what will actually happen. In fact, considering the history of proximity, the son’s enthusiasm for the idea, which could backfire, was bold, actually electoral and hypocritical.
Flávio demonstrated what was already known: he, his relatives and Paulo Figueiredo, grandson of the dictator who said he prefers the smell of horses to the smell of the people, have circulation in Trumpist circles. Natural. For some time now, since the time when Olavo de Carvalho and the fascist traditionalist Steve Bannon pontificated, the relations of the Bolsonarist ultra-right with Trump’s ideological soldiers and his anti-liberal friends have been known.
While the servility of the Brazilian blind right is displayed in Washington and becomes a meme, the American leader loses prestige and support in his country.
The magazine revealed this week that he has become the most unpopular president since the survey carried out by the publication began in 2009. The feat is the result of a range of mistakes made on several fronts, from foreign policy to economic policy.
against 34% who approve and 6% who say they don’t know.
The main reason for dissatisfaction is the economy, which is far from performing as promised during the campaign. The increase in fuel prices, caused by the stupid war waged in partnership with Israel against Iran, is a relevant aspect in the perception that personal and family finances are getting worse.
Around two-thirds of voters believe that it was a mistake to enter into this conflict and 53% say that the US image and position in the world have worsened since he resumed office. It is worth remembering that one of the points highlighted in the electoral dispute was the condemnation of the country’s involvement in distant wars for no clear reason.
This promise was one of the pillars of the “America First” slogan, the banner of Trump and his far-right nationalist allies. Not by chance, the survey points to a significant loss of support for the Republican in a base that was quite loyal, made up of white Americans without higher education.
The magazine’s forecast model, in partnership with research firm YouGov, indicates that Democrats have a 90% chance of winning control of the House in the midterm elections in November.
There are still a good few months left for the election both there and here. At the moment, however, the winds portend a double sinking.
