Bolsonaro Son's Scandal Hits Campaign

Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, is under fire for his ties to a jailed banker linked to the Master scandal. Despite denying any connection last month, his team is now downplaying the issue ahead of the October presidential race. Flavios recent T-shirt stunt blaming the scandal on President Lulas government has backfired, with rivals on the right criticizing his flip-flop and pollsters noting a significant drop in his support. The scandal has also raised concerns about his pro-business pitch and alienated chunks of the right wing. With the race still wide open, Flavios camp is in damage control mode.
