    I would bet money that seeing how Trump is doing right now is what made the difference. The Iran war is an international disaster and Bolsonaro was pretty tied in to trump. So if Trumps approval went down Bolsonaro might take a hit by proxy.

        You do understand most people don’t know anything about politics right? I’m not saying Bolsonaro and Trump are linked because they’re both right wing. Bolsonaro and Trump are very publically involved/allied. Trump has no such close ties to Le Penn. The average voter is a moron. They don’t know what ideologies are. They just know vibes. And Bolsonaro and Trump were openly posturing as being allies in a way that Le Penn is not.
