You do understand most people don't know anything about politics right? I'm not saying Bolsonaro and Trump are linked because they're both right wing. Bolsonaro and Trump are very publically involved/allied. Trump has no such close ties to Le Penn. The average voter is a moron. They don't know what ideologies are. They just know vibes. And Bolsonaro and Trump were openly posturing as being allies in a way that Le Penn is not.
it really is depressing when you realize just how completely out of touch with reality the average person is
