Democrat Joe Biden has a chance to build a more progressive government than Barack Obama, for whom he served as vice president from 2009 to 2017, even though Biden’s policies lean more conservative than Obama’s did. Biden’s inauguration is good news for Brazil, where a system of political, economic, and social savagery is taking place.
Biden’s presidency strengthens political conditions for the demise of Jair Bolsonaro either through impeachment (the least likely result), or through an electoral defeat in 2022, a scenario that seems more realistic in light of the failure by our institutions to investigate the high crimes and misdemeanors of the president of the Republic.
