    “Temer appeared annoyed that some of his allies had moved to grant Rousseff political rights without consulting his government.”

    Temer is suffering under some serious delusions. He does not seem to understand that congress is not required to follow his wishes. And he has no legitimacy so he has no ability to promise anything.

    I doubt the Temer administration will last to the 2018 elections.
