Bolsonaro holds a rally in Miami and charges against the management of Lula Sa Silva

The former president of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro said this Friday in Miami that “the north of a country is marked by the economy” and he does not feel “optimistic” with the Brazilian economic future due to the measures taken by the government of President Luiz Inácio Lula Da Silva in his first month in power.

Bolsonaro spoke like this at the “Power of the People” event organized by the conservative group Turning Point USA at a golf club belonging to the business consortium of Donald Trump, former US president.

TPUSA leader, conservative political commentator and writer Charlie Kirk, introduced Bolsonaro as a fighter against socialism and Marxism and a defender of freedom before an audience of some 400 people, mostly Brazilians, but also Americans.

Amid shouts such as “Lula, thief, go back to prison” and other compliments about him, Bolsonaro reviewed his four years in government and especially his economic and social policies.

With irony he said that, having done all that, he still wonders how Lula, leader of the leftist Workers Party, who was booed by the public, won the elections.

It was an apparent allusion by Bolsonaro to alleged electoral fraud, something that the TPUSA leader said “sounded familiar” to him, referring to Trump, who claims without evidence that he was the victim of robbery in the 2021 elections, won by the Democrat Joe Biden.

Bolsonaro, 67, has been in the US since December 30 and is awaiting a “visa change” requested by his lawyer in January to stay longer in this country, which he arrived while still president.
