Em um vídeo que circula nas redes sociais, um homem comenta uma notícia sobre o fato de o Partido Liberal (PL) ter manifestado a intenção de concorrer à presidência da Câmara dos Deputados e conclui que Jair Bolsonaro não está inelegível e que vai mandar no Brasil caso o partido dele vença a eleição interna da Casa. Uma legenda acrescentada sobre as imagens afirma que “Bolsonaro pode assumir a presidência”.

The review says the video’s claims that Bolsonaro was no longer ineligible and would control Brazil if the PL won the Câmara leadership election were false.
