> that opposition leaders are in prison

Like Lula in Brazil? Trump and the US are celebrating Bolsanaro.

Lula is lucky, the opposition leaders have been murdered in Honduras, where the US helped overthrow elections.

I'm happy the US is committed to human rights - except in Guantanamo Bay, or its allies chopping up reporters in foreign embassies, prior to the press vilification program against said reporter.

> Like Lula in Brazil?

The major corruption scandal where Lula himself was the criminal ring's figurehead and the fact that a PT militant tried to assassinate Bolsonaro during the presidential race, not to mention the overt position of PT's sockpuppet candidate of freeing the corruption gang's figureheads from prison with presidential pardons, played an important role in Brazil electing Bolsonaro in free and democratic election that is disputed by no one.
