Recent reports reveal a conscious decision by Flávio Bolsonaro’s campaign to maintain a low profile ahead of the upcoming election round. A White House adviser has characterized this unexpected discretion as a tactical move.
Flávio Bolsonaro, currently leading in the Brazilian presidential race, visited the White House in May. Despite his close ties with U.S. President Donald Trump, Bolsonaro chose not to seek a formal endorsement. This decision aligns with his campaign’s broader strategy.
An eye-catching moment during this period was the presence of a large balloon depicting President Trump at Sao Paulo’s Independence Day parade on September 7. This illustrated the ongoing associations between the two leaders.
