One of Jair Bolsonaro's biggest supporters, pastor Silas Malafaia, is disappointed with the former president.

He accuses Bolsonaro of shying away from the São Paulo municipal elections out of fear of being defeated by Pablo Marçal, in case the self-proclaimed ex-coach defeats mayor Ricardo Nunes, with whom the former president formed an alliance and even indicated a vice mayoral candidate.

Malafaia says it is not a leader's role to be guided exclusively by social media. "What kind of lousy leader is this?" he questions.

The pastor claims to have sent over 30 "harsh" messages to Bolsonaro and says that the former president has not cursed or blocked him only because he received Malafaia's support during crucial moments in his life – like the day when, "close to being arrested, " he cried on the phone for five minutes nonstop.
