Bolsonaro - sometimes dubbed 'Brazil's Donald Trump' - screamed in pain after being stabbed, then fell backwards into the arms of those around him. It took a few moments for the crowd to realise what happened, but they quickly rushed the candidate out of the street. Police in the Brazilian city have arrested a man who allegedly stabbed the presidential candidate, who is now thought to be stable. Fernando Haddad, who will likely be the Workers Party presidential candidate, said the stabbing was a "shame" and a "horror." Brazil's front-running far-right presidential candidate rallied supporters yesterday with a message of a clean break from the past as a new opinion poll showed him consolidating his support among voters.
