Thread: Bolsonaro turning Brazil into another Venezuela?

This dumb populist c u n t has already done irreparable damage to the economy, has become a model for how to mismanage a public health crisis, and now it looks like he's following the Chavez model, even appointing an inept, inexperienced army general as CEO of the national oil company.

It's not hard to see where this is going...

Brazilian president removes Petrobras CEO over fuel hikes

Jair Bolsonaro says there will be "changes" at the Brazilian oil giant over four recent price hikes. Truck drivers are angry at the rises that they see as unfair. The company says they are in line with market rates.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro replaced the CEO of energy giant Petrobras with an army reserve officer on Friday.

"The government decided to appoint Joaquim Silva e Luna to fulfill a new mission, as...president of Petrobras, after closing the cycle, exceeding two years, of the current president Roberto Castello Branco," said a note from the Ministry of Mines and Energy, published by Bolsonaro on his Facebook account.

Four independent board members of Brazil's state-controlled Petrobras are stepping down in a sign of repudiation for renewed political meddling from Brasilia.
Their departure from the 11-member board is the first tangible evidence that President Jair Bolsonaro's controversial nomination of a former army general as chief executive, to replace technocrat Roberto Castello Branco, is starting to take a broader toll on Petrobras' professional management.

Petrobras board withdrawals signal discontent

Brazil really is a have-not country. The previous regime was a better but it's brazil. They have a weak useless currency.

It's ironic that Brazil is such a disaster as a US ally. This is what Venezuela has to look forward to after regime change

He wasn't cleared of corruption the dispute was over where the trial took place. He could still face trial in Brazilia. They need someone who is not Da Silva but definitely left of the far right Bolsonaro. This guy is monumentally stupid on so many fronts, far too numerous to name.

Clearly the dumbest policy of Bolsinaro is his rank pro Seppoism.

Which means he will turn Brazil into the next Venezuela, as per the OP? Yeh, right. More like the next Colombia, or Honduras, or anyplace else they massacre indigenous people.

Sad. Such a nice place. A cosmopolitan mix. Weather OK. Food OK. Infrastructure mostly OK.

Maybe it is an example of what happens when the populist vote overcomes the thinking person's vote.

You're too stupid to understand the implications of the OP.

That's why you come out with drivel like this.

He really is a clueless c u n t.

I long ago stopped trying to make sense of his witless blathering.

blathering

/ˈblað(ə)rɪŋ/

1. the action of talking long-windedly without making very much sense.
   "now stop your blathering and get back to work"

(I think it's important to try and teach the imbecile basic English).
