The guy has a bitter lunatic chicago phd that thinks every serious economist in Brazil is after him. He will not know how to handle the politics and will try too hard to prove himself, causing even more recession due to uncontrolled cuts in spending.
At the same time, people are fooling themselves if they think that Bolsonaro is not an anti-reform, extremally conservative guy. Just look at all the things he voted against/for in his 30 years in politics. Added to that, he has openly said very bad things about lgbt and women, he wants to double the number of justices in the supreme court and he wants to call a new constitution without the political class, but only with his own appointed 'intellectuals'.
How can someone not see he is exactly what Chavez was?
I agree with some of that. Bolsonaro is inept, too inept to even chose an economic team. I personally know people in the military (I mean top brass) who are fanatic about him. Once Bolsonaro starts to bulldoze the constitution with his “radical changes” (read reinforcing his grip on power by meddling in the justice system), and he gets an impeachment motion, the military will now have the motivation to intervene since they have sympathy and were seduced by the Bolsonaro agenda. This is very worrisome.
