Jair Bolsonaro is now awaiting trial on charges of plotting a coup, depriving Brazil’s far-right bloc of its figurehead. Yet with a presidential election due next year, the Brazilian left hasn’t found a candidate who can match Lula’s popular appeal.
tarcisio is kind of looking like an option for them, a winnable one. pablo marçal looks more like the now classical brazilian fascist, but i don’t think he has a chance just yet. i trust the fascists will always have at least one viable option, though.
do you think we can get someone remotely center-left with fighting chance in there for, say, 2030? because i dont really think so. i can see another pretend-left term from lula, at best, then all downhill…
