Trump backs Flavio Bolsonaro's US entry, calls Brazil election 'terrible'
US President Donald Trump said he approves of defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro coming to the United States, calling the election "terrible" and the market reaction "awful." Trump said he knows both candidates, described Flavio's father, former President Jair Bolsonaro, as "treated very badly," and denied involvement in Brazil's affairs. Flavio left Brazil after refusing a Supreme Court order to surrender his passport amid a money laundering investigation he denies. The US State Department will grant visas to Flavio and his family, according to a senior official. Flavio, who has not conceded to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, arrived in Florida with his wife and two daughters, though their exact location is unknown.
