The right wing in Brazil is at a crucial turning point, with the electoral landscape ahead of 2026 marked by internal tensions and strategic political maneuvers. Although Jair Bolsonaro remains the most relevant figure in the sector, his current ineligibility forces consideration of alternative scenarios, while his inner circle works to secure a potential candidacy.
In this context, the priority for the right wing is the approval of a broad, general, and unrestricted amnesty that could eliminate the criminal consequences for Jair Bolsonaro. The measure already has sufficient support in Congress, but it depends exclusively on the decision of the chamber presidents, who so far have delayed its consideration.
If approved, Jair would regain the possibility of competing and his ineligibility could be suspended through a preliminary injunction, a process that would be facilitated by Kassio Nunes and Andre Mendonça, the expected presidents of the TSE in 2026, both appointed by Bolsonaro.
