Political allies of Jair Bolsonaro (PL) reacted to singer Anitta’s statement in support of the candidacy of former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the 2022 elections on Monday (11) on social media.
Anitta declares support for Lula, and Bolsonaro’s allies react – Photo: Internet/Reproduction/NDOn Twitter, Anitta said that “she’s with Lula and that she’ll do everything in her power to help him blow up the internet, as long as it’s not against election law.”
She has stated that her position is now “Lulala” following the death of PT treasurer Marcelo Arruda, who was shot dead at his birthday party by Jorge da Rocha Guaragno, a supporter of Republic President Jair Bolsonaro.
See the singer’s post:
I am not a PT and never have been. But this year I’m with Lula and anyone who wants my help to make it rock here on the web, on tiktok, on twitter, on instagram, just ask me what, being within my reach and not violating electoral law, I will do it.
