247 - Former president Fernando Henrique Cardoso, who orchestrated the 2016 coup against Dilma Rousseff, criticized Jair Bolsonaro's government on Thursday, the 2nd, a government he helped elect by revealing that he cast an invalid vote in the second round of the 2018 elections. 

"It's difficult to understand so many ministerial changes: Health and Education. Saving lives and educating takes time. Inclusion, not exclusion. With so many capable people, how can there be so many mistakes? There's a lack of direction, and where there was some, in the economy, the virus prevents fiscal rigor. This won't work, not even without opposition...", FHC stated on Twitter. 

In an article published this Thursday, the 2nd, the journalist Leonardo Attuch "FHC [Fernando Henrique Cardoso] is the true father of Bolsonarism. 'He was the one who led the breakdown of the 1988 democratic pact. Therefore, any democratic proposal championed by FHC completely loses its meaning. Bolsonaro and FHC are part of the same process. One is the consequence of the other,' says Attuch."
