Ground and crushed, Doria lost the PSDB party, but he's still a thorn in Alckmin's side.
João Doria's candidacy for president under the PSDB banner died this Sunday, after being heavily criticized by Folha, Estado, and Datafolha, and also receiving blows from historical figures in the party like Arthur Virgílio and Alberto Goldman. The damage was so great that Doria will have difficulty even finding other parties. However, he could still create many problems for his mentor, Geraldo Alckmin, who won the internal battle within the PSDB. The biggest risk is Doria trying to run for mayor – which would highlight his failure. In this case, the blame for a disastrous administration would fall on Alckmin's shoulders, leaving one question open: after all, was he the only one who didn't know that Doria was a gigantic fraud?
247 - Governor Geraldo Alckmin won the internal PSDB dispute and will be the party's candidate for president of the Republic.
However, as Machado de Assis would say, to the victor go the spoils.
In reality, it's a hot potato, named João Doria Júnior, invented by Alckmin himself.
This Sunday, the João Doria's candidacy for president representing the PSDB party has died.
He got caught in Folha, in a Editorial where Otavio Frias Filho asked him to start working. In Estadão, in another Editorial which exposes the farce of "Cidade Linda" (Beautiful City). And in Datafolha, in research which recorded the growing disgust of the residents of São Paulo who were deceived by his "prefake".
If that weren't enough, Doria also received criticism from historical figures in the PSDB party such as Arthur Virgílio and Alberto Goldman. The former stated that he lacks the legitimacy to be a candidate and criticized the fact that Doria had... purchased support from MBLThe second one called him rogue.
The damage was so extensive that Doria will have difficulty even finding other parties willing to support his presidential ambitions.
However, he could still create many problems for his godfather, Geraldo Alckmin.
The biggest risk is Doria trying to start being mayor – which would highlight his failure.
In this case, the blame for disastrous management would fall on Alckmin's shoulders, leaving one question unanswered: was he the only one who didn't know that Doria was a gigantic fraud?
Right now, the best course of action for the PSDB is to work towards the impeachment or resignation of Doria, so that the São Paulo city hall can be taken over by his deputy, Bruno Covas.
