Reply to comment by [deleted] in Brazil's Bolsonaro maintains silence after Lula's election victory by Lionel54321

Dude ngl but I don’t want to find out. I’m not from Brazil but I hope the army doesn’t back a coup and everyone just accepts the elections.

Shits crazy enough in the world.

On the one hand I completely agree. On the other hand, I post to /r/noncredibledefense, so there's a part of me that wants to see the US lead an OAS-Sanctioned intervention to make sure Lula takes office and to defend American (Hemispheric) Democracy.

That is a bad outcome because it would kill people, and I would prefer it not happen, but if it did I would enjoy the coping and seething from right wingers and tankies alike, who seem to be on the same side most of the time.

From what I've read Bolsonaro lost a lot of his popularity with the rank and file, meanwhile numerous senior general's don't like him either.

As such a military coup is probably not on the cards.
