«When you win an election, you create a creation. For example, I now have 10 games that do it to me. If we win the election, those parties will participate in the government,” the Workers’ Party founder said during an interview with CNN Brazil television.
He insisted that this happens in all democracies of the world and that “politics is the art of dialogue.” There is no point in winning elections and appoint leaders of the opposition government, he said.
He asked himself: «How do you choose a minister of the Supreme Court? How Do You Choose a Director of the Federal Police? How do you choose the Attorney General of the Republic? How do you appoint a director on the Petrobras board? This is an indication of those who participated in its process,” he said.
The former Labor leader also speculated that what is currently happening in Brazil’s parliament is due to the fragility of the republic’s president, without citing far-right leader Jair Bolsonaro.

He envisioned the election of deputies and senators committed to the interests of the people and as a solution to the dialogue between the elected forces and those with decision-making power.
“We have to talk. Politics is the art of speaking. You have to speak up and say you can’t have a secret budget… Congress votes, but the one who executes it is the president of the republic,” he remarked .
He alluded to his alliance with ex-governor Geraldo Alcamin, his deputy, in an elective formula, to the understanding that much of the practice in Brasilia was needed to replace the fact that the head of state was held hostage by the national is taken. Congress.
He recalled that the teams were assembled by technical ability and representation in their governments, and that they now have much more experience to regain Brazil.

The PT leader led by two points and voter intent went from 44 to 46 percent, while the former parachutist, the Liberal Party candidate who wishes to be re-elected, held steady at 31.
