"Tropical Trump" Jair Bolsonaro wins the presidential election in Brazil

International News: Jair Bolsonaro wins election in Brazil

TOM: 'Far Right' Bolsonaro Wins

Jair Bolsonaro is not Donald Trump (they are to different men), but that Brazil is rejecting the path of say...Venezuela is significant.  The media almost universally call Bolsonaro "far right" and an authoritarian. Bolsonaro ran on a populist anti-corruption message that resinated with a majority of Brazilians across the political spectrum.  

Now he has to deliver as a leader. I wish him and Brazil success.  A strong and prosperous Brazil is good for the region and for North America too.  Failed states like Venezuela hurt their citizens and make things harder on neighboring countries.  

DRUDGE REPORT : BOLSONARO WINS BRAZIL

Events like this pose a real intellectual challenge for the Third Way crowd. It can't just be Trump that's causing this, can it? There must be some unacknowledged problem with the old global world that is driving this. https://t.co/YdsuDPM97y

Had a very good conversation with the newly elected President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, who won his race by a substantial margin. We agreed that Brazil and the United States will work closely together on Trade, Military and everything else! Excellent call, wished him congrats!
