The election of Brazil's Trump, Mr. Bolsonaro, is paying dividends already.

Brazil's government on Saturday issued a statement saying it recognized Venezuela's Congressional leader, who opposes President Nicolas Maduro, as the rightful president of Venezuela.

Maduro, who started a second term as president this week, has found himself increasingly isolated as countries around the world have called his continued leadership illegitimate.

Juan Guaido, the head of Venezuela's opposition-led Congress, said this week he was prepared to assume the country's presidency on an interim basis and call elections.

A credible alternative to Maduro is needed, and maybe this is the guy.  Best wishes to the suffering people in Venezuela.  Hopefully they've learned not to vote for the "free stuff" candidate.
