Jair Bolsonaro already knows he lost.
In the former president’s inner circle, including lawyers, no one is betting that the outcome of the TSE trial, scheduled for the 22nd, will be anything other than a disqualification.
The result reported by the allies was more than 5 to 2, with two possible votes in favor of Bolsonaro being that of Minister Cassio Nunes Marquez, who is seen as likely, and that of Raul Araujo, who is seen as doubtful.
Strategists and allies say Bolsonaro has been “preparing” for this outcome since his return from the United States. In contrast to what happened in the presidential elections, when he was convinced that he would win, plunged into a state of depression with defeat, the former captain, this time, will not be surprised.
Injury will be the strategy with which he must respond to condemnation. In his recent interviews and public speeches, Bolsonaro has been repeating the rhetoric that he is a target of political persecution by opponents.
It is scheduled that the trial of the former captain in the process to which he responds will be charged with abuse of power and misuse of the media in the meeting with the ambassadors in which he launched attacks on the electoral system, in July last year, in three sessions. , starting on the 22nd and ending on the 29th. The schedule will only be interrupted if a TSE minister requests more time to analyze the situation. In this case, you will have 30 days, extendable for another 30 days, to reinstate the case and allow the trial to resume.
Once the ruling is published, Bolsonaro’s defense will have three days to file a request for an ad ban, which is intended to point out any omissions or inconsistencies in the court’s decision.
Once the move is over, there will only be an extraordinary appeal to the Federal Supreme Court, as it is difficult for the former president to escape another defeat.
