Jair Bolsonaro

Jair Bolsonaro is a Brazilian politician who has made a significant impact on the country's political landscape. Born on March 21, 1955, in Glicério, São Paulo, Brazil, Bolsonaro rose to prominence as a member of the National Congress of Brazil, serving as a federal deputy from 1991 to 2018. During his tenure, he was known for his conservative views, advocating for a reduction in government intervention in the economy and a stronger stance against crime and corruption. As a presidential candidate in the 2018 election, Bolsonaro's campaign focused on his promise to restore law and order, reduce bureaucracy, and promote economic growth. His message resonated with many Brazilians, particularly those who felt disillusioned with the country's political establishment. After winning the election, Bolsonaro took office on January 1, 2019, and has since implemented various reforms aimed at stimulating economic growth, reducing government spending, and increasing investment in infrastructure. His presidency has been marked by controversy, however, with critics accusing him of authoritarian tendencies and human rights abuses. Despite these challenges, Bolsonaro remains a polarizing figure in Brazilian politics, with a significant following among those who support his conservative agenda.
