Bolsonaro: "a stab in the back" — Is this the end of Bolsonarismo? | DW News

The parallels have always been remarkable, between Donald Trump and the man dubbed the Trump of the Tropics - Jair Bolsonaro. Turns out that didn't end when they both left office. Both are now plagued by legal troubles that threaten to end their political careers. In Bolsonaro's case, his hopes of reclaiming the presidency in 2026 appear to be over.
Bolsonaro has been barred from running for public office until 2030. Brazil's top court ruled that he abused his power ahead of last year's elections. Judges found that Bolsonaro had used official government channels to boost his own campaign and spread unfounded doubts about Brazil's electronic voting system. Bolsonaro called the ruling a "stab in the back".
