It's too bad that the Brazilian public overreacted to the scandals of Michel Temer's centrist regime.
Seems like a blessing now between Bolsonaro's Brazil, and the corrupt regimes of Lula and Dilma preceding it.

For a few weeks in August, the world's eyes were fixed on Brazil and its government's response. But what is the latest with the fires now, almost two months on? And why might the problem be worse than it first appeared?
