Vincent BevinsGUEST
And they ate up the center right.
Vincent BevinsGUEST
So, like, the PSDB, the party that since the '90s was always going back and forth with Lula between Fernando Henrique Cardoso and, like, the respectable center right party, the PSDB is down to 11 seats, which is the same amount of seats as the Partido Liberal, the anti-revisionist Marxist Leninist Communist Party.
Liz FranczakHOST

Vincent BevinsGUEST
Like, the center right-

Thiago PradoPANELIST
É, e teve até um momento de PFL, né, antes da briga com o MDB.
Paulo Celso PereiraPANELIST
Exatamente, o MDB não dominou a Câmara e Senado, é, durante o governo Fernando Henrique, é, seguidamente.
Paulo Celso PereiraPANELIST
O Aécio foi presidente da Câmara, é, no Senado cê teve a CM, é, é, inclusive brigando com o Jader nessa época.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
Now, that score means that Lula had roughly 3.4 million fewer ballots on his side than in the 2022 first round.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
It was his weakest first round showing since 1998 when he lost in a landslide to Fernando Henrique Cardoso, then the incumbent.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
And now I think we can say that Lula has a puncher's chance to win the fourth non-consecutive term and the inside lane belongs to Flávio Bolsonaro.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
James, what is your take on what happened to Lula and why we are here?
Leonardo AvritzerGUEST
And with that, uh, majority is created.
Leonardo AvritzerGUEST
So both Cardoso, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Brazilian president between '94 and, uh, 2002, and Lula, president between 2003 and 2010, they could approve...
Leonardo AvritzerGUEST
They had the rates of approval of his, of their, uh, legal initiatives in Congress that was similar to the approval rates of the British system.
Leonardo AvritzerGUEST
So close to 90% of their legal initiatives were approved in Congress, and this is the presidential coalition system.
Paz Rodríguez NiellHOST
Entretanto, mucha gente se pregunta cómo sería un nuevo gobierno de Lula da Silva y cómo sería una primera administración de Flavio Bolsonaro.
Paz Rodríguez NiellHOST
Llamamos ayer a São Paulo a Sergio Fausto, director general de la Fundación Fernando Henrique Cardoso.
Sergio FaustoGUEST
Elecciones en Brasil este fin de semana.
Sergio FaustoGUEST
Disputa ajustadísima.
Thiago BronzatoPANELIST
nessaNão, não é isso, não.
Thiago BronzatoPANELIST
É porque assim, é, é, olhando, olhando, é, resultado ali eleitoral desde 89, etc, a gente tá com uma pesquisa eleitoral, que tirando Fernando Henrique, que ganhou as duas, as duas eleições ali no primeiro turno, um resultado eleitoral assim de pesquisa, por ora, muito parecido com 2006 e 2022, que tem ali esse pelotão, essa, essa campanha que o Lula não foi ao debate, a Heloísa Helena e Cristovam Buarque foram muito baixos os índices, e 2022, Ciro Gomes e Simone Tebet, também muito, muito baixo.
Thiago BronzatoPANELIST
E o Lula ficou muito perto de ganhar a eleição no primeiro turno nessas duas eleições.
Thiago BronzatoPANELIST
E nesse momento, essa tropa aqui de, de terceiro lugar tá com índices muito parecidos com essa galera.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
And I mean, people on the left don't like to remember that.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
But Lula, before he became president, he was extremely critical of Fernando Henrique Cardoso's social programs, saying that they incited people to vote with their stomachs rather than with their heads.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
which is almost verbatim what the Bolsonaro say now.
Gustavo RibeiroHOST
And I mean, Bolsonaro increased the social programs once he got closer to 2022.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
Budgetary amendments.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
In the times of Fernando Henrique Cardoso, the former president, and in the first years of Lula, these amendments represented about 1% to 2% of the budget the government had to their disposal to spend.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
We have discretionary budget.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
It grew, especially in Bolsonaro, it grew to 15% and now it's 6 to 1 billion reais.

Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
And those policies create nice institutions which will, let's say, stimulate economic development.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
But when I look at the politicians, when I see them on TV, when I hear what they have to say, I don't have much expectations in this concern.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
Because, for example, I'm going to tell you, Brazil, in 1980, 1998, Fernando Henrique Cardoso was the president, designed a national policy of education at that time.
Ricardo Chaves LimaGUEST
But the Congress had to approve this national policy, educational policy, and make it work.
