3. Yes, I expect the rich to overthrow him in record time

They want to please their masters in Washington, after all, keep that aid money rolling on in.

I hope he stays away from small aircraft and open cars. I also hope he has a food taster.

Just electing an indigenous person to the presidency is going to send a real shockwave through South America. This is absolutely huge for them.

It will be very interesting to see what the constitutional convention he called for will do and how long it will take for the rich European types to mount a counter attack.

5. When we overthrew Goulart in Brazil we did something similar to what

you describe. We suddenly gave Brazil a huge amount of military and financial aid after the military forced Goulart to resign and into exile.
