Bolsonaro downplays Lula and attacks Janja in conversations with allies.
The assessment is that the First Lady, Rosângela Silva, has political ambitions, which has made her a target of Bolsonaro since her return to Brazil.
247 - One of the main targets of Jair Bolsonaro's (PT) conversations with allies since returning to Brazil in early April has been First Lady Rosângela Silva, wife of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT).
According to the journalist's column Beautiful MegaleAccording to O Globo, members of the PL party believe that Janja, as the first lady is known, has political ambitions, which is why Bolsonaro targeted her.
According to the Constitution, however, Janja could not run for a position in the Legislative or Executive branches. Despite this, according to the report, lawyers linked to the PT (Workers' Party) see a legal loophole that would allow her to run for office if she wishes.
"In 2002, the Superior Electoral Court allowed Rosinha Garotinho, then First Lady of Rio de Janeiro, to run for office to succeed her husband, Anthony Garotinho," the newspaper points out.
