This article aims to analyze the various discursive strategies used in Brazilian political discourse. The analysis will be developed based on the postulates of the French analysis of the discourse, mainly in the postulates of Charaudeau (2008) and Maingueneau (2008). The corpus selected is the inauguration speech of interim President Michel Temer, delivered on May 12, 2016, after the removal of Dilma Rousseff. In our investigation, we consider some of the possible meaning effects of the lexical choices made in Michel Temer's inauguration speech. To support the analysis of the inauguration discourse, a historical retrospective of the seven constitutions that the Brazilian State had was made, presenting the socio-political and cultural context of each of them, from the first of 1824 to our current 1988. Thus, it is intended to contribute to the analysis of Brazilian political discourse and the means of persuasion used by our rulers. As a result it was possible to analyze the main terms used by interim President Michel Temer during his speech that contributed to the construction of his ethos and that resulted in the great influence of his speech on public opinion of the nation and legitimacy of his government, after the removal of President Dilma Rousseff.
