"This is not exclusively a Brazilian phenomenon. Countries around the
world, from Hungary to Turkey to the Philippines, have turned to noisy
leaders who promise instant renewals and silver-bullet solutions under
the banner of a right-wing, nativist “populism” ― the preferred term of
news outlets, even though the key constituencies backing these
candidates tend to comprise the nations’ elite."

Tragedy in progress.
