Brazil's embrace of the far right.

If a third of the hosts had eked out another 20 points, I'm guessing you'd be giving cover to Lucifer.

[Non Sequitur]

He's on record as to what he wants. And they elected him anyway.

Brazilians are dumb. They could have had a socialist that would have turned the country into a liberal utopia!... like Venezuela.

The poverty of socialism is better than the success and excesses of capitalism, bud.

And no one is arguing that people are disputing that.

You keep bringing it up as if it should diminish concerns. I’m not sure what your point is.

No one is disputing he was legitimately elected.

Sure, that's your right. But you don't get to make their decisions. But criticize them all you want.

ok, but we have the right to state our belief that their choice was stupid. I don't think any electorate has ever eventually not regretted voting in someone who promised to take away civil liberties.

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, the Brazilians had a choice between a Trump-like figure (populist movement, capitalistic, fear-mongerer) and a Clinton-like figure (long history of corruption, public sector investor, Communist running mate). You'd have thought the Worker's party would have learned a thing or two from the US election and not nominated a big-time-baggage-carrying communist leaning liberal

True. A terrible choice. Only the Trump-like figure I think is likely even worse than Trump, if that's possible.

Which is there right.
