QOTD -- Lucky Trump Wasn't Brazilian

 

"I want to say something to the American people: If Trump was Brazilian and if he did what happened at Capitol Hill, he’d also be on trial in Brazil. And possibly he would have violated the Constitution. According to the justices, he would also be arrested if he had done that here in Brazil." -- Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, responding to threats by the Malignant Fascist to increase tariifs on Brazil if the Brazilian government didn't "leave [former President Jair] Bolsinaro alone."  The Malignant Fascist sees Bolsinaro as a fellow fascist authoritarian who also tried unsuccessfully to pull off a coup in order to overturn a legitimate election.   It says something that Brazil is doing a better job of holding Bolsinaro accountable than we have had in holding the Malignant Fascist accountable.
