Well we'll see about that. Lula has been lauded by most decent democratic leaders in the last few days and I feel that that will bear fruit. He will have to deliver, but he's done it before and we need to give him a fair wind.

As for your other point, you do obsess over Trump in joke threads and just about every thread, and I am far from the only person who thinks that. As for me, I have lots of interests in politics of all shades. In recent months I've been appalled by the paralysis in the US when it comes to doing something about him, not least in the matter of the urgent need to stop him from standing again. I post more frequently about him these days because I think that he is a severe threat to all of us. Your first paragraph is incredibly patronising and is replete with the kind of hubris that is not justified by your rather limited intellect and your penchant for ill-informed comment, not to speak of your inability to express yourself in clear and simple English. In view of this, I'd advise you to take a humble pill and try to express whatever opinions you harbour in far more measured terms than you currently do.
