Far right Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, anticipating a landslide reelection loss against leftist former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, is looking very strongly, very savvy at what his ally Donald Trump did wrong and demanding that there be a forensic audit of the October election five months ahead of schedule, the AP reports. “As allowed by electoral law, we will hire a company to do the audit,” Bolsonaro said during a Thursday livestream, during which viewers may or may not have tried to let him know that the Cyber Ninjas are out of business. “People want transparent elections in which the vote is effectively counted for their candidate,” Bolsonaro added.

Bolsonaro also hinted he’ll try his own version of Operation Kraken should he lose by mentioning that the Brazilian military made some suggestions to the country’s highest court but were ignored, saying “Initially they (the armed forces) raised hundreds of vulnerabilities to go through this with a fine-tooth comb. It has been a long time… If electronic ballots are impregnable, why are they (the electoral court) worried? The head of the electoral court should thank them, take the necessary measures, discuss with the team of the armed forces so the elections are held without any suspicion,” though he did not add anything about using the metal from the melted machines for prison cell bars when all the election stealers are given life sentences.
