Caiado participated in a lunch with businesspeople promoted by the São Paulo Commercial Association (ACSP) at Clube Atlético Monte Virgínia, in the capital of São Paulo. His candidate for vice president and national president of the PSD, Gilberto Kassab, also attended the event. The ceremony brought together around a thousand guests.
When commenting on the former president's electoral performance, Caiado stated that the 2022 result was a message from voters. "There are five different mandates. One mandate from the PSL, which lost in the succession. Then, the reelection. So, it shows that whoever doesn't deliver, doesn't have a vote," he said.
Then, the former governor of Goiás contrasted his own electoral trajectory, citing the two elections he won in the first round as a demonstration that managers who deliver results are recognized by the population.
In the presidential candidate's assessment, populism in Latin America creates relationships of dependence between voters and benefit policies, a dynamic that he attributed to the PT and which, according to him, takes away from citizens the "capacity for their own initiative".
Caiado also raised the tone regarding public accounts and said he saw a more delicate situation than that faced in the crisis of the middle of the last decade. "The fiscal situation today is more serious than the one we entered in 2015", he stated, criticizing the economic conduct of former president Dilma Rousseff (PT).
He also said that his government plan will be delivered this Friday, the 14th. According to electoral legislation, the document must be presented to the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) together with the request to register the candidacy by the next Saturday, the 15th.
