Pedro Menin assessed that an interview with Vorcaro to Globo could harm Lula and benefit Flávio. He called Vorcaro a criminal but also intelligent and speculated that he could blame members of the Workers' Party and say that Flávio's money was intended solely for a film. Menin also suggested that Vorcaro might align himself with the right to gain future advantages in trials. In Menin's view, supporting Lula would be a poor strategy among evangelicals, a group that, according to him, had a 70% rejection rate of the president—a percentage that could reach 90% after the leak of old tweets attributed to Ana Elisa, the PT's coordinator, about churches and believers. He stated that Vorcaro and his brother-in-law were pastors and speculated that they could turn to the church's power if their businesses did not succeed. Menin said that an attempt to prevent the interview could be seen as censorship and could lead to a 65 to 35 defeat for Lula in the second round. He also predicted that a victory for Flávio could initiate an impeachment process against Moraes and trigger a historic rise in the stock market in the following months. He noted that the text was merely a guess, that he had no non-public information, and that he could be very wrong. #Brasil #Política #Eleições2024 (translated)
