Targeted by the PT (Workers' Party), Campos criticizes "fighting" and "political squabbling."

Without mentioning the Workers' Party, which in a note published on Facebook this week called the governor of Pernambuco a "fool" and a "spoiled playboy," Eduardo Campos took advantage of his agenda in Pernambuco to jab: "There are many politicians who only know how to talk"; according to him, "the people don't want to see fighting, low blows, the people want to see results"; a critical text against Campos generated an official response from the PSB, which called the PT a "fundamentalist sect"; even the PSDB joined the discussion, saying that PT members don't know how to coexist with adversaries.

Pernambuco 247 – Currently playing the victim, having received harsh criticism from the PT this week, the governor of Pernambuco, Eduardo Campos (PSB), took advantage of an event with the population in the municipality of Escada, in the southern part of the state, to needle the PT members – without, however, naming them. "There are politicians who only know how to talk," Campos provoked.

A text released by the PT (Workers' Party) on Facebook last Tuesday, the 7th, calls the presidential candidate and former government ally a "fool" and a "spoiled playboy." In an official response, the PSB (Brazilian Socialist Party) called the PT a "fundamentalist sect" and a party that has lost its "political compass." Campos also said, via Facebook, that he was the victim of a "cowardly attack."

"No one has ever seen me here, on Escada Street, on Palmares Street, or on television, speaking ill of anyone [...] The people don't want to see fighting, vulgarity, the people want to see achievements," Campos declared this Friday. According to him, "there is no favorable wind for those who care more about political squabbles than the lives of the people."

On Friday morning, Eduardo Campos' Facebook page posted a photo The governor stated: "I have never disrespected my opponents. I did not learn to do politics by disrespecting people, offending families, or trying to belittle anyone. Politics is done with ideas. Ideas can be better or worse, but it is the citizens who judge that."
