Brazilian presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro was accused of illegal campaign practices — allegedly, he would have allowed and encouraged sympathetic businessmen to pay for and spread defamatory messages on WhatsApp about his adversary and his party.
Bolsonaro has been called the “Brazilian version of Donald Trump” because of his far-right political stance, but even in light of several alarming racist, homophobic and fascist statements, the candidate leads the polls. Oliver explains how this is happening and why he thinks Bolsonaro “is a terrible human being.”
