This scenario actually took place in Brazil and looked like a Latin version of Jan 6. The former president responsible, Bolsonaro, is a big fan of Orange ass, tsf. He has been charged and is facing jail. He was denied authorization to attend Orange ass inauguration. He tried. Orange ass was his buddy at one time…Bolsonaro ran against Lula, an active unionist, who won the elections. President Lula has 0 interest in Orange ass. I think Brazil received a 10% tariff on exports so Lula is looking for other markets and is in serious talks with China.

One thing about Brazil I think is ideal: Election Day is a day off for everyone. Everyone capable is required to vote. If unable to vote either have a very good reason or pay a fine. (Fine is minimal)
