Speaking as a Brazilian who voted in Lula - not because I necessarily think he's the best, just the least worse - this final term of his will most likely be his worst. The congress and senate that was elected this year is atrociously far-right, most from the same party as Flavio. Lula won't be able to accomplish anything; at best he'll be able to hold the status quo until 2030 - which is good considering with Flavio we'd very likely have loss of rights and setbacks - and hopefully by then we'll have more reasonable candidates from the right, and maybe a better one than Lula in the left.
