NEW YORK, Nov 20 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday removed his 40% tariffson Brazilian food products, including beef, coffee, cocoa and fruits that were imposed in July to punish Brazil over the prosecution of its former president, Trump ally Jair Bolsonaro.
The move follows a similar order by the administration last Friday to remove tariffs on several agricultural products from other countries as the White House makes a U-turn on some tariffs that have increased the cost of food in the United States.


thoughts?


Seems like an admission they increased prices, no?

On October 6, 2025, Trump and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva held a phone call agreeing to start negotiations to resolve issues raised in the original July 2025 executive order imposing the tariffs. This was followed by an in-person meeting between the two leaders on the sidelines of a regional summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where they expressed optimism about reaching a deal.

In early November 2025, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira to discuss a “reciprocal framework” for US-Brazil trade relations. Brazilian Vice President Geraldo Alckmin later credited three elements for the progress: Lula’s emphasis on dialogue, US sensitivity to consumer impacts, and input from private sector stakeholders on both sides.


Seems like part of trade negotiations.

have they though? CPI has been staying around 3% which is the feds inflation target. Food is expensive, but I have not noticed it getting more expensive recently, it's just staying where it jumped up to during COVID and biden

Come on, man. You don't have to rain on the TDS parade with facts. Their victories are always short-lived, and these little moments are all they have left.
