Newspapers in Brazil - An article published this Thursday (5) by Le Monde points to the degree of unpopularity of the president of Brazil Michel Temer.

Monde notes that the head of state is on his third attempt to evade justice.

The newspaper reports, in a mocking tone, that yet another bizarre event occurred this week in Brazil, where criminals called the president a "thief" while robbing a bank vault in São Paulo.

Two robbers were filmed robbing a bank, challenging President Michel Temer, whom they called a "thief."

The scene, shown in a two-minute and thirty-seven-second amateur video, surfaced on Wednesday, October 4th, and went viral on social media, showing two robbers in action.

So far, this is not surprising in a country where a financial institution is robbed on average every five hours. More surprising is the message conveyed by the two masked bandits. They say: "Look, brother! Film it!" And their companion added: "Hey, Temer, you son of a b...! You think only you can do it, huh? Son of a b... We can too, look!"
