Why he might be annoying:

    He married three times.
    He has been called Brazil's Donald Trump (points for originality).
    He has disparaged Brazil's indigenous community on several occasions.
    He has been accused of waxing sentimental for Brazil's old military dictatorship.
    He cast himself as a political outsider despite having been a fixture in the political establishment for over 25 years.
    He has a penchant for making off-the-cuff 'jokes' easily construed as intolerant/discriminatory.
    For instance, when asked what he would do if he found out his son was gay - he responded that he 'would prefer that he die in an accident.'
    He also was attacked for joking that a female lawmaker was 'too ugly to rape.'
    He led the charge on the impeachment proceedings of President Dilma Rousseff in 2016.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He ran a social-media savvy campaign.
    He served in Brazil's military for 15 years, reaching the rank of Captain.
    He first came to public attention giving an interview to a Brazilian magazine criticizing military budget cuts and low officer salaries (1986).
    He was stabbed during his presidential campaign.
    He was hospitalized for three weeks after the incident but continued campaigning during the period.
    He won the Presidency by running on an anti-corruption and anti-crime platform.
    He claimed some of his more offensive statements were either taken out of context or attempts at humor gone wrong.
