      That would be sweet, but very unlikely. Flavio became a part of kind of an internationalist fascist movement with the likes of Trump, Milei, AfD, Orban, Bukele, Le Pen, Israel etc. (edit: forgot Israel. Israel appears to be the center of the contemporary fascist movement)

      This might unironically work if Obama did a welcoming event for Flavio. Trump seems to dislike Obama enough on an ego level that it might set him off.

        Trump: For all the Money we spent to help Flavio, he BETRAYED us for Barack HUSSEIN Obama

        Then he becomes cellmates with Maduro. Actually no, he would go to prison but he would continue the family tradition of going to the hospital every day. Maduro deserves better cellmates.

    Ah, almost forgot an angle that is very important. Before this election, there was a dispute among many different right-wing politicians about who would lead the far right. Among the leaders there was Romeu Zema (the previous Minas governor), Tarcísio (the current São Paulo governor), Michele Bolsonaro (Jair Bolsonaro’s wife - in my opinion, much smarter and more dangerous than all his sons), and other minor leaders (Pavanato and Nikolas Ferreira). But the Bolsonaro’s family wanted to maintain the leadership of the far right and Flavio was the key that united the movement, as the Bolsonaros’ threatened to split the movement in case they weren’t at the helm.

    However, with Flavio and Eduardo as fugitives, the far right will be under dispute again, maybe between Carlos Bolsonaro (a complete lunatic - I don’t think people will want him), Tarcísio, Zema and Michelle. These leaders will very likely be much more dangerous than Flavio. And for these people, Flavio being unable to dispute an election is more of a blessing than a problem for them. The Brazilian bourgeoisie is already conspiring about who will come next.
