The great Mexican soap opera of Brazilian politics had an important chapter this Wednesday (25). went on the attack against senator Flávio Bolsonaro, his stepson and pre-candidate for president. The terms were harsh. She said she was disrespected, stabbed, mistreated.
The trigger for the former first lady’s outburst is the election in Ceará. Michelle wants an ally to be a candidate for the Senate and rejects support for Ciro Gomes, who has already offended with harsh terms.
But the Ceará case is just a pretext. The family has been at war for a long time, due to a power struggle. Leadership on the right is at stake, at a time when Jair Bolsonaro, the greatest representative of this camp, is imprisoned and weakened.
The most important thing is the effects on Flávio’s campaign. Some of his allies are already saying that the damage is comparable to the Dark Horse case — the messages exchanged by the candidate with banker Daniel Vorcaro.
Michelle is a very influential figure on the right. By using harsh terms against Flávio, she further alienates the female electorate, in which the senator already faces great difficulties.
It also increases resistance to Flávio among evangelicals, as the former first lady is highly respected in this segment.
The gift given by Michelle was even greater because of the moment she chose. It was right on the day that the president also because of the Master case. With this, it ended up overshadowing the negative news for the government.
