    I just wonder how the voters feel about this. I couldn’t imagine voting for someone only to have them immediately skip the country because they lost. What a great show of strength and power. 🙄

    I do realize I may be allocating too much introspection to the majority of voters of Bolsonaro.

      His dad also lost and fled to Florida. The people who vote for those guys are convinced that they’re escaping political purge and repression and all that stuff, they pretend that the left is doing a tyranny so their side is right to go in exile for safety. Ignoring the part where he’s being arrested for all the fraud they commit, they claim it’s a false pretense. You know, classic projection, because that’s what they want to do when they win.

      I’m sure they had the talking points ready to go, right wing misinformation machine will explain it away and his radicalized voters will accept it without question.
