SĂO PAULO â Two days before leaving office, ending a tumultuous four years as the race-baiting, Amazon-developing, coronavirus-downplaying, vaccine-skeptical leader of Latin Americaâs largest country, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro remained defiant in a teary farewell address on Friday, defending his record and saying the election that led to his ouster was not impartial, but condemning violence against the result.A group of radical bolsonaristas set fire to buses and tried to invade federal police headquarters in the capital this month after the arrest of a Bolsonaro supporter who was accused of having âexpressly summoned armed people to prevent the certification of electedâ officials.Bolsonaro said it had been difficult to stay mostly silent for two months, but refrained from speaking because anything he said âcould make things more tumultuous.ââI didnât leave the four linesâ of the Constitution, he said, comparing the document to a soccer pitch.Nobody wants an adventure.âBolsonaro sought to explain to his more radical supporters why he didnât embrace stronger efforts to stay in power.After he spent years casting doubt on the security of electronic voting machines, many of his supporters have claimed without evidence that the election was stolen."
