 A news anchor running for mayor of São Paulo attacked his opponent with a chair during a televised debate, shocking this nation and plunging the race to govern the Western Hemisphere’s largest city into political chaos.

José Luiz Datena slammed a chair into opponent Pablo Marçal, an Instagram influencer who sells self-help guidance to his legion of online fans, at the Sunday evening event.

Complaining of painful breathing, Marçal was taken the hospital, where aides told Brazilian media that he was diagnosed with a fractured rib. One of his fingers was dislocated, emergency officials told Brazilian media.

 But who won the debate? 
 WWE rules? The chair throwing dude  
 Maybe it's the chair that won, because everyone is the loser under the circumstances. 
 You got a point 😜
