How likely is it that Bolso tries to stay in power? I know the media here in the US brings it up in all the coverage but I’m curious what the reality is? Is this just media scaremongering? Would he have institutional support if he tried? Etc etc

He'll certainly try to muddle things along, call fraud, ask for a recount. But it really seems that the military and the other institutions are not going to poo poo the bed for him.

Honestly, i give it 50-50 odds that he'll find an excuse to leave the country around december and just stay in the US, Hungary or any other chud-friendly country.

Bolsonaro getting isolated from DC partly because of hostility to Biden and the Democrats specifically seems like part of a wider pattern where US destabilization is making US partisanship internationalized.

The Saudis hostility to Biden seems partly driven by a preference for GOP rule. EU hostility to Trump can be read the same way retrospect, considering they are willingly destroying their economies under Biden's orders.

Gonna be fun. Imagine if Bolso goes for a coup and the US House GOP is the biggest institution that openly supports him.

If he can't get the Brazilian army's support he'll just complain alot and go away. Just like how Trump couldn't ever really do a coup in the US because he didn't have the army behind him due to the fact that Biden was zero threat to the blob.

That's very true. Brazil is morphing into a weird two-party state, excdept there are two 'real' parties and a swarm of small rental parties that get bribed and bought off to make a governing majority. But it dos track that over time, each of those factions would also be more or less friendly with a US party.

During the 2016 anti-Dilma protests, it was not uncommon to see signs of "Trump, win the election and come help us". Back then it was seen as goofy minority thing among the larger protests, but now it is the default conservative position, so much so that Steve loving Bannon dropped by to move things along.

I mean, 1 year ago Biden was legit praising Bolsonaro for his handling of the Amazon. Biden gave every indication that he was willing to all out support Bolsonaro.

This was a beautiful day. I am in the middle of the woods so I am sadly missing the spontaneous street parties, but I did deliberately do a 13 km run and it was a gorgeous sunset. Sat on the computer right as Lula took the lead in the vote count too.

Can't believe I am waiting on a Bolsonaro statement though.

Yup. But they thought they were paving the way for their neoliberal PSDB pals, who know how to use the right fork and knife and talk about peace, love and progress while doing about the same thing Bozo did.

Instead, the fire they lit burned the 'centrist' structure and the crazies inherited the ashes. Now, unless they want a seriously volatile nation that juuust might align with Putin, Hungary and other sore spots for US diplomacy, having the sane people back in charge is the better option...at least for a while.

I don't trust US foreign policy to refrain from loving things up for long, though.

It's just loving politics. Did anyone seriously think Biden wasn't going to pretend to like Lula? As long as capital flows, goods get to ports, foreign investment continues apace, and financial elites get what they basically want, he doesn't care if Lula or Bozo gets in. Now if Lula tried to socialize large chunks of the economy and spooked the business sector, then all the human rights/Lula is the next Castro poo poo will come right back into play. But I suspect Lula isn't going to shake poo poo up like that. So, yeah, he gets the standard congrats boilerplate. Tweet was written like a month ago.

if Lula manages to finish his term, it will only be because he never tries to be too different from Bolso in the grand scheme of things. But well, still marginally better.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.
