Supporters of defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro have had their very own January 6th moment as they smash up the Brazilian Congress, Supreme Court and Presidential Palace, in a large-scale and violent riot that is described as having "striking similarities" to the January 6th 2021 insurrection in Washington DC (even down to the "Make Brazil Great Again" hats and t-shirts, which Bolsonaro himself also like to wear).
Put this down as yet another thing that would never have happened without the precedent of Donald Trump.
