Brazil PL candidate Bolsonaro pushes constitutional reform, targets judiciary and term limits
Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, the PL presidential candidate, has made a constitutional reform a central campaign issue, proposing measures against the Supreme Court, presidential term limits, chemical castration, and a lower penal majority. The reform agenda appears to be a strategic diversion from other campaign issues, as the opposing campaign noted the Master's approach yielded no votes. This signals a populist, institutionally confrontational platform that could reshape Brazil's political landscape if elected.
