Lula’s Defiance Pays Off as Trump Blinks on Brazil Tariffs

 

Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s defiant response to Donald Trump’s 50% tariff threat was validated Wednesday — at least in the short term — with markets and businesses breathing a collective sigh of relief at the long list of exemptions to the levies.

 

Some of Brazil’s biggest exports to the US, from civilian aircrafts to orange juice, won’t face increases beyond the 10% rate previously imposed, softening the blow of tariffs Trump now plans to implement next week instead of Friday.

 

Instead, Trump blinked, announcing for the first time that his 50% tariff didn’t mean 50% on everything.

To be fair, the way his mind seems to be going I'm not even sure he remembers the tariff rates he has previously set. Maybe what the world perceives as TACO is just an old man losing his mind.

Which is a reeeeally scary thought since we all know there are no grown-ups present in the WH during Trump 2.0.

His reasoning in the first place was so dodgy - getting involved in internal politics of an independent country.

So you are saying he didn't back down and give a long list of exemptions which will remain at the current 10% then? Because the story was carried by Yahoo finance it didn't happen.

Wow, is that how news reports work?

And it still doesn't end.

Oh wait, Mexico is where TACO's originate from.

Trump grants Mexico 90-day reprieve as countries race to make deal

 

President Trump on Thursday said he was granting Mexico a 90-day reprieve on higher tariffs, saying he would extend Mexico's current tariff rates to allow for more time for negotiations.

Trump announced the extension after speaking with Mexico's president, Claudia Sheinbaum. The extension avoids a further escalation with the US's largest trade partner as Trump's sweeping tariffs come into full effect on Friday.

Facts are facts. If you don't think they're true, then provide a reasonable argument with evidence to back it up. Otherwise you're merely trolling with tired clichés. Yawn.

JT there's nothing wrong with Trump's mind. This stupidity will soon go the way of all the other stupid, gay talking points.

 

Since you pretty much relegated to back of the short bus in k12 I'll help you out:

Yup, those never really took off as memes like this one. Don't use them.

 

The only more tiresome, dead meme is BLM
