President Donald Trump called the result of Brazil's presidential election a “disgrace” and declined to say whether he recognized Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's victory over Flávio Bolsonaro, according to TRT World.
The remarks came a day after Flávio Bolsonaro arrived in the United States and declared himself Brazil's rightful leader despite losing Sunday's runoff. Lula secured 51.8 percent of the vote, according to TRT World.
