Acosti argued that Călin Georgescu's opponents were afraid of him because, in his opinion, they could not conceive that someone could act out of conviction and patriotism, without seeking a position or reward. He stated that Georgescu selflessly loved his country and possessed qualities such as stature, eloquence, and soul. The author accused Georgescu's critics of confusing position and wealth with value and respect, mentioning cars like the BMW X6 and Range Rover. He argued that dignity and character could not be obtained through positions, company cars, or image campaigns, and that power belonged to the Romanian people. Acosti further stated that the opponents' fear stemmed from the comparison with Georgescu, whom he described as a respected man without invoking his position. In his view, his presence made the imperfections of the critics more visible, and they were afraid of what they lacked. #România #Patriotism #Dreptate (translated)

In a text published by Blog do Noblat, Renato Meirelles assessed that the first round showed the strength of anti-PT sentiment, but that Lula should lead the debate against Flávio Bolsonaro towards a comparison of their proposals for everyday life, instead of turning it into a plebiscite about the PT. Meirelles stated that the electorate of class C, especially young people, began to value not only salary but also autonomy and free time. As an example, he cited the 6x1 work schedule: according to him, Flávio positioned himself against its end, while Lula was in favor. He noted that Flávio had advantages in the discussion about public safety and stated that Lula should not ignore the topic. The author also wrote that it was not enough for Lula to say that Jair Bolsonaro was worse or to point out economic indicators that voters were still not perceiving at home. In the end, he classified the Senate president as the biggest campaigner for the second round. #Lula #Eleições2024 #Antipetismo (translated)

Rafael Gloves stated that, in 2022, the Brazilian economy was growing, inflation was under control, the government had a surplus, investments were increasing, and violence was decreasing. According to him, in this scenario, a power shift in favor of Lula was seen as acceptable, also due to the media's narrative that Lula would be different and that the then-president was unsuitable for the position. Regarding 2026, Gloves said that the economic indicators had reversed, inflation was eroding the population's income, government debt and violence had increased, and investments were focused on those seeking high interest rates. He asserted that the country was close to a precipice and that, for this reason, the two years could not be compared. Gloves predicted that Flávio would receive votes even from people who did not like him, out of desperation. He said this gave him confidence that a Flávio government would save Brazil and would have no commitment to please anyone or to pay the Centrão, which, according to him, did not support him. #Economia #Política #Brasil (translated)
