    Brazil's embrace of the far right.

    Brazil has just elected an extreme right-wing asshole as president.

    Sounds like a classy guy:

    He once told a congresswoman that she did not deserve to be raped because she was "very ugly," Brazil's TV Globo reported.

    He also said publicly he'd prefer to see his son "die in an accident" than a member of his family be homosexual.

              Y'all need to look at the positive... The hashtag #PrayForBrazil is trending. The liberals have found religion!



              Substantial margin? The other candidate must have been pretty bad. Was he running against Hillary Clinton?

                  "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                    Congratulations Brazilian voters. You just voted away your civil liberties. Maybe you don't need or want those.

                        Trump can't get away with something like this as of right now due to current laws and the Constitution, fortunately.

                        But the more interesting question is, would he want to?

                        I think it's pretty clear the answer to that is yes, based on his "enemy of the people" and "maybe we could yank broadcast licenses" and "change 'libel' laws" type garbage he's said before.

                          He’d do it if he could. He’s not one for self restraint or respect any process. Hear him crow about the evil media and our weak libel laws.

                            Oh come on. He's just a big mouth who likes to say stuff for the theatrical effect at his rallies.

                              lol I just got a weekly newsletter from my nephew who has been on his mission in Brazil for a few months now...

                              "The Brazilian Presidential Election was yesterday, so that was pretty crazy. Our people couldn't come to church because they had to go and vote, and also it was pretty crazy at night when the results came out. The people here in Campina Grande are obsessed with the guy who won, and they had like a big party in the streets outside our apartment. Tons of cars and motorcycles honking, blasting super loud music, people running around waving flags and making hand guns (aparently the guy who won wants to legalize guns here in Brazil). So yeah that was pretty crazy."

                              Sounds like it was pretty crazy. :|
