“Every day, when I get up, I have a routine: I bend my knees, pray the Our Father and pray to God that the Brazilian people never experience the pain of communism. Ask him too”, harangued the former Army captain.

He called on supporters to “attract young leftists, show them the truth. His candidate (Lula) supported others for South America and look at the misery those countries are in, look at Venezuela, look where our Argentina is going, with nearly 50% poverty, ”said the president. “Lula, thief, your place is in prison!” the crowd bellowed.

In the midst of praising the ministers who will be candidates in the elections next October, Bolsonaro pondered the infrastructure works and the policies for the agricultural sector of his Government.

“I am showing what we have done and what we intend to continue doing. This is not a virtue, but an obligation”, he said, differentiating his management from the corruption that he attributed to that of Lula de Silva.

Before beginning his speech, Bolsonaro passed the microphone to the first lady, whom he described in a religious tone as a “virtuous woman.” Michelle Bolsonaro, in turn, said that her husband is “a chosen one of God.” “This man has a pure and clean heart. The re-election is not for a power project as many think. It’s not about status because it’s very difficult to be in that place. The re-election has a purpose of liberation and healing for Brazil”, she added.

For his part, Bolsonaro spoke for 1 hour and 9 minutes. Just before the end, he called on fans to take to the streets “for the last time” on September 7.

The rightist’s campaign committee is working to reverse Lula da Silva’s lead in the polls for the October 2 first round.

The latest poll by the consulting firm Datafolha in June showed the leftist, leader of the Workers’ Party (PT), with a vote intention of 47%, followed by 28% for Bolsonaro. Close to Bolsonaro, meanwhile, they handle more current polls that show the president between 7 and 10 points behind him.

Bolsonaro’s advisers recommended yesterday to focus on a proactive agenda, focused on the economy and the government’s efforts to reduce fuel prices and reinforce social aid.

The Institutional Security Cabinet ordered a strong security operation, with magazines and metal detectors at the entrance to the Maracanazinho, after episodes of political violence that have shaken the campaign in Brazil.
