Experts predict that the latest allegations against Bolsonaro, if substantiated, could drastically overshadow previous charges and ultimately lead to a conviction. Supporters of Bolsonaro have hinted at his plight resembling that of former U.S. President Donald Trump. Yet Brazilian legal experts stress that Bolsonaro confronts a more severe legal predicament, considering the depth of allegations and mounting evidence against him.
Recent political dynamics suggest Bolsonaro may struggle to leverage public opinion to distract from his legal hurdles, especially with elections on the horizon for 2026. Brazilian courts can proceed swiftly with trials, meaning Bolsonaro's potential conviction may arrive before he can contest in future elections.
