I’d like to believe that both Trump and Bolsonaro are a couple of spooky Halloween characters rather than flesh and blood Presidents of two huge countries. They seem to think alike. And mind you:  they haven´t dropped out of the blue. They´ve been voted by millions of people, who apparently don’t mind their dark characteristics. Donald’s latest idea: to end birthright citizenship for US born babies. He might be after a “pure”, “uncontaminated” race, just like Adolf: white-skinned citizens, preferably with red/yellow hair, fully armed, defending the borders against «barbarians». Meanwhile, in Brazil, the brand new right-wing President feels he has been sent by God Himself (or is it Herself?) to put things right.

 Poor America, North and South!  Witch hunt revisited …
