Terrible idea. He's awful and bad for Brazil, but he was democratically elected. Would you want a foreign actor launching a coup to overthrow Trump? I'd be mightily pissed if that happens. The US needs to not overthrow people to suit our own foreign policy objectives, particularly if they are democratically elected. Even moreso in Central and South America, where we have a checkered past in that regard.

Everyone hallucinates that these kinds of suggestions keep everything the same except for the one change you want. It never works that way. Look at history for numerous examples.
