STF may start climbing out of the hole or keep digging

oglobo15 September 2026 at 06:00

The Supreme Federal Court faces a serious confidence crisis, as indicated by data from a Quaest survey. The survey reveals that 56% of Brazilians do not trust the court, representing a ten percentage point increase compared to previous surveys conducted just over a month ago.

The STF ministers are the main ones involved in this situation, since the survey shows the negative perception of the population about the institution as a whole. The article suggests that the ministers themselves still needed concrete data to gauge the depth of the crisis affecting the court.

The article is presented as exclusive content for subscribers, with restricted access through registration at the publication link. The tone of the title indicates that the court may be facing a decisive moment to reverse or deepen this credibility crisis with public opinion.

Why this matters

This survey directly affects Brazilians by demonstrating an accelerated decline in public confidence in one of the country's main institutions, which could weaken the legitimacy of judicial decisions and impact the functioning of Brazilian democracy. The ten percentage point growth in such a short time indicates a rapid deterioration of public perception of the STF.
