Lula 's full return to political life replaces the terms of political confrontations. Until then, the center of the clashes was within the framework of the right, between Bolsonaro and the right-wing sectors that, supporting his economic policy, departed from his style of government. Between Bolsonaro and the Judiciary, between Bolsonaro and Congress, between Bolsonaro and the media. Faced with these confrontations, the left had to position itself, always against Bolsonaro. But he was not the protagonist. It was a concrete front, in which the right set the terms of the confrontation with Bolsonaro. The horizon of the struggle was limited by the right against the extreme right, which did not touch the government's economic policy.
He clashed with Bolsonaro's authoritarian tendencies. Lula's reappearance changes the terms of the debates and confrontations. The fact that right-wing politicians such as Iraq Telegram Number Data FHC, Delfim, Rodrigo Paes, Gilberto Kassab, chose to vote for Lula in the second round, represents an important defection from the right and the willingness to consider Lula as a less bad option, compared to Bolsonaro. The division of the right is one more symptom of the loss of narrative and hegemonic capacity of the right. His speech in the fight against politics and corruption has lost the ability to gain and maintain majority support in society.
Bolsonaro's loss of support does not prevent him from continuing to have, at least in the polls, a level of support that, as in , makes him the main opponent of the left, the PT and Lula. The others, who are generally candidates seeking to express a supposed third way, are divided, unable to gain significant political and social support. In the latest survey, in which Lula leads Bolsonaro, only % remain for the other candidates. They maintain their candidacies, because they believe that, at some point, the right may abandon Bolsonaro en masse and look for alternatives. The left needs to understand the new possibility that is presented to it and rise to the challenges. First of all, as Lula emphasizes, focus now on the urgent needs of the population: emergency aid, employment, vaccines.
