Aww, Chicureo will be so disappointed.

At least they finally explained why Bolsonaro was their 'person of the year', and it's a reason that makes sense...

As for faking the attack, why on earth would he fake being stuck in hospital for several weeks while his allies started in-fighting? No one would choose to begin their presidency that way.

The award is all about the “stated intention of fostering closer commercial and diplomatic ties between Brazil and the United States”.......but since it's become politicized, and has deviated from its purpose, I think he's taken the right decision to not attend.

Who needs a bunch of idiots protesting outside their door, led by Mr. Bill de Blasio ?

Award from the Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce to JB sounds like giving an award to oneself

“I think he's taken the right decision” He doesn't have much choice as most of the civilised world views him as a persona non grata. Thats one little machination from Langley that wasn't successful.
You have to understand the sensitivities of New Yorkers towards those that advocate terrorism. Thus, “the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims” which NYC has experienced with 911.

Congratulations to : Gollum, Brazzo and Stink....you three also deserve an award....only problem is that you'd need to go to Cuba to receive it.

“Congratulations” You have by your failure to address the issue have confirmed that Bolsonaro fits exactly the profile of a terrorist “the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims”
“lets do the coup already. Let’s go straight to the dictatorship.”
“Elections won’t change anything in this country. Unfortunately, it will only change on the day that we break out in civil war here and do the job that the military regime didn’t do: killing 30,000. If some innocent people die, that’s fine.”
The New York Times, Oct. 28, 2018
”Jair Bolsonaro: the worst quotes from Brazil's far-right presidential frontrunner
The dictatorship’s mistake was to torture but not kill,” he(Bolsonaro) told a radio interviewer in 2016.

Imagine the money wasted - for the benefit of NONE:
- during the trip to the USA & thereafter
- for buying rotten eggs+tomatoes to throw at JB
: Hence, canceling the trip was the wisest decision so far!

Poor wee Gollum.....always upset....and its illogical logic never ceases to amaze me...but who cares what it thinks ?

The trip might be reinstated.....to Dallas, instead of to Bill de Blasio's bleeding heart NYC..
But it's not important enough to worry about.

“The trip might be reinstated.....to Dallas” Of course he would be welcome in a city where JFK was assassinated. But it doesn't make him any less a terrorist accordingly, as the definition correctly shows.

He is just going where Langley advices. You are still unable to refute the fact that he perfectly fits the definition of “terrorism - The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.” https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/terrorism
You're so desperately attempting an impossible rehabilitation. That all your left with is an argumentum ad hominem.

Gollum,
Your logic, and conclusions, are only bs...and there's no point in trying to refute it.

Who made a “personal attack ?” where ? .........you ARE a slimy, lying pussy.....prove me wrong.
And, “argumentum ad hominem” ? don't make me laugh....sorry, can't help it...

@:o))
Talking of 'sheer entertainment'.....that is what Gollum has become, a source of 'entertainment'...not a very good one I admit, but don't worry, he has already earned recognition....as a complete idiot.

@Jack Bauer/@Terence Hill

Is all this insult-exchange really about: Bolsonaro cancels the trip to New York PLUS “Person of the Year“?

If so; please hold your adrenaline! This needn't even BE ”in the news“! After all - ”canceled“ or not, a supposed ”Man of the Year” or not; there's NOTHING really worthwhile in it; for EITHER of the Concerned Countries! You may not want to take my word for it though.

Agree, the subject does definitely not merit all the attention....but Gollum can't help getting his knickers in a twist....his real problems start when he sees that he has lost the argument - just about “always'', and a bit more ; he goes off at a tangent, brings totally irrelevant matters into the argument in the useless attempt to distract people from his bs, especially when he fails to understand what he tries to read in Portuguese, or in his 'brasilwire' bullsh*t.
But look, to be 100% fair, I nominate Gollum for the ”Idiot of the Year ” Award......to be presented by another idiot, Bill de Blasio, in NYC.

REF: Bolsonaro cancels the trip to New York where he was to be honored as “Person of the Year“:

- cancels the trip: FACT
- Person of the Year: OMG - “Person of the Year”???
- Trip: Was the publicized motive, the real motive or was it a “Cover Story” to cover “something” ELSE?
