The national president of the PL, Valdemar Costa Neto, praised the previous governments of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) and said he had “no comparison” with former president Jair Bolsonaro, today the main name of his party . The statement, which went viral on social media this Friday (12th), was released to the newspaper The diaryfrom Mogi das Cruzes, December 15th.
“There is no comparison. Lula is a comrade of the people. Lula is completely different from Bolsonaro. Completely different, and it is also a phenomenon, to get to where he is,” he said.
Valdemar recalled that the entrepreneur José Alencar, vice president of the Republic in Lula’s first two mandates (2002-2010), was from the PL, which formed the basis of the PT governments until 2015, in Dilma Rousseff’s second mandate.
“We were part of the government and Lula also did well in the government. And later she elected Dilma. And José Alencar who helped elect Lula in those elections [2002]. Now Lula and Bolsonaro are completely different. There is no comparison,” she said.
Still in comparisons between the two political leaders, Valdemar cited the fact that Lula, before governing the country for eight years, had attempted the presidency of the Republic three times before being elected for the first time to the Planalto, as well as having already been candidate for the government of São Paulo, while Bolsonaro had only one mandate.
“Lula has a lot of prestige. You don’t have Bolsonaro’s charisma, Lula has prestige. Popularity. He is known by all Brazilians.”
