    Well, the US famously don’t like immigrants, so I’m sure the fine boys from ICE will sort him out.

    What?

    What do you mean it doesn’t matter because he’s rich?

    Well, that’s an oddly unprincipled stance to take. So, perfectly good foreign nationals will low net worth will be incarcerated but literally the delivery himself would not if he had wealth?

    Yes I know who Elon Musk is…

      Saudi Arabia is not very happy with being ignored when they asked for help to fight the Houthis. Twice. Moreso after all the “investment” they did into trump’s close circle

    Wait until he plays “President in Exile” in the US until Trump installs him back home, Venezuela-style.

    It blows my mind just thinking this guy almost won the presidency of the second biggest country of the continent. Two days ago he was voting and lecturing about democracy.

      We’ve always collected them. The Shah, Batista, Santa Anna, the police chief who executed a prisoner in Saigon, President Thieu, that dumb woman who thought she would get put in power in Venezuela if she gave Trump her Nobel Peace prize.

      We almost had Napoleon I too (that would have been pretty cool though)

    More info from the similar Guardian article:

    Bolsonaro allies told Metrópoles [news outlet] that he would land in Florida on Tuesday afternoon and planned to request political asylum. “The Donald Trump administration has been informed,” the website added.

    A US state department spokesperson said Bolsonaro and his family would be granted visas “to allow them entry into the United States.”

    Bolsonaro has had Italian citizenship since 2023 and reportedly possesses a passport from the European country.

    Lula slammed what he called Bolsonaro’s “shameful” decision to flee. “This is what the family Bolsonaro are like. Brazil is their second homeland. Their first homeland is licking the boots of the US, as he’s become accustomed to doing,” he said at an event celebrating his 81st birthday in Brasília.

          its much harder to invade it, much like iran its similar, the terrain is very prohibitive of enemy movement, when you have things like massive rivers and amazon jungle in the way.

          Brazil isn’t Venezuela, much bigger, stronger institutions, stronger army etc. Never say never but you think Trump is eager on getting into another Iran war?

            He’s an idiot. Also a narcissist, so easy to manipulate. He always thinks he’s right and he always thinks he knows better. He’s unpredictable imo.

            Well…Iran is a vast country, with a deeply rooted regime, strong military, proxies all over the Middle East ánd the ability to chokehold global energy supplies…

            …and yet Trump was stupid enough to wage war on Iran on a whim. Nuff said.

            I hate that this question doesn’t have a clear an immediate answer as “of course not!”. Because… yes, I can see pedohitler considering this to hide the disaster of Iran.

        Pretty much. All of this is part of their theater. He flies from facing the consequences of his crimes but the far right will of course spin it around, lying about some political witch hunt. It’s always the same with these criminal politicians. Everyone else is the bad one. They know they simply have to keep denying everything and some idiots will keep believing them. It’s sad, really.
