Most systems won’t change overnight because of the guy on top. What makes you so sure Brazil would have done better with the opposing party candidate as president?
Maybe the problem lies in a supposedly chronically underfunded healthcare system, by a number of previous administrations? This would then reflect, in an electoral democracy, of the citizenry’s misplaced priorities.

For all the blame Trump gets, Obama was the first leader to use FB for wider reach, and Twitter as well. Mike Bloomberg spent like some 100Mn+ on FB ADs but still couldn't convince even a 1% of voters in the primary. Blaming FB has become like very strawman, and indirectly insiuates that voters are stupid and gullible, which is never ever the case. This technique was used by Labour in UK as well, but turns out people just didn't like Labour at all, and blaming FB just backfired.
