See the text below. Sensationalist:

President Michel Temer has been forbidden from giving interviews by the First Lady. Marcela made the decision after Temer said things like "horrific accident" and referred to the real as the cruzeiro. Last week, Temer had already forbidden his wife from making statements.

"Now they are both mute and communicate only through sign language," said a friend of the couple.

Experts say the chance of the country returning to growth has now increased.
