Brazil will soon sit with two presidents

- The political chaos in Brazil, a good three months before the Olympics, complete. The host country has coming weeks actually two presidents.

Formally yesterday by the deposed head of state Dilma Rousseff commons continues until the expected confirmation by the upper house. In reality pulls successor Michel Temer all the strings of the seventh economy in the world.

It's war between the two. Rousseff represents the 'treason' of its Vice President in line with the military coup that ushered in a long dictatorship in 1964.

That is exaggerated. The Constitution of 1988 provides for dismissal of a president who is going to be out of line. But it is an emergency brake which requires careful use in the early Brazilian democracy.

There's the problem in this process. The impeachment was revenge last year started by lower house chairman Eduardo Cunha, a party colleague of Temer. Four hours after Rousseffs Workers' Party refused to support in a corruption case against the brutal power Cunha politician decided she had to hang.

The resignation of the President is based on accounting tricks. These are to Brazilian standards, nothing special. Rousseff is not accused of self-enrichment, unlike Cunha and many of its allies in the lower house.

It is true that mismanagement of the clumsy president ruined the economy. But in this parliament does not have clean hands. The harassed Rousseff in full recession with cost billions 'bomvoorstellen' to blow up the national budget.

The center party (PMDB), which seizes power by opzetje of Cunha and Temer ruled for fourteen years with the Labour Party. She is just as guilty of the accounting tricks and extravagance in Brasília.

Precisely Temer now presents himself as an advocate of much-needed reforms and austerity. Lack credibility but it is good news for the economy. The slick lawyer is handy politician who will suffer less from sabotage by parliament.

Can the IOC then soon get relieved? No, because the furious Labour Party announces protests until Temers unelected government falls.

The only way out of the impasse seems to launch new elections by a rapid change of the constitution. But it has Temer, which would pick according to polls 1 percent of the vote, not hungry.
