The tacit message of the past fortnight is that Brazil's army would not support an attempt at election-stealing. But the police might, says our Bello columnist

Several retired generals campaigned for Mr Bolsonaro; one is his vice-president. The cabinet is stuffed with military officers. Their alignment is partly ideological—the army came to hate the left-wing Workers’ Party of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and liked Mr Bolsonaro’s call for order and security. But it is also opportunistic. Around 6,000 military folk have government jobs. The forces have received wage increases and were exempted from a money-saving pension reform.

Allies are turning against the president. Business now complains that the government’s foot-dragging on vaccine procurement is delaying economic recovery. Thesecured the firing of the Trumpist foreign minister, Ernesto Araújo, for his failure to buy vaccines; the group’s leader, Arthur Lira, the speaker of the lower house of Congress, has hinted at Mr Bolsonaro’s possible impeachment. Courts are investigating his politician sons.

The high command have two big worries. One is reputational damage. They know that the public views their association with the government negatively, says a former officer. “They are desperate to recover their image.” The other is the growing split between constitutionalist commanders andWhat raises the stakes is the spectre of Mr Bolsonaro in 2022 trying to ape the attempted insurrection against defeat by supporters of Donald Trump .

I believe that he is making up the decision-making to deceive and is succeeding. He realized that the siege was closing against him, there is an election next year and, don't forget: he has an army general in the vice presidency.
