An administration having no legitimacy, headed by a convicted felon, composed of all white male 'old guard', most of whom are under investigation for massive corruption - presumably Temer is joking in calling for the public to rally behind him.

Basically, Brazil has been taken over by the Mob.

Brazil needs to survive and be strong to give future to 200 million children.

Brazil is already weak. We can not afford to to weaken it further.
Rupture of the Portuguese world will destroy our citizenship. For more corrupt it is.

In portuguse

O Brasil já está fraco. Nós não podemos nos dar ao luxo de enfraquecê-lo ainda mais.
A ruptura do mundo português irá destruir nossa cidadania. Por mais corrupta que seja.

In truth I did not find the allegations persuasive. Temer did no more than hold the sort of conversations that occur every day in embassies all over the world.
