>be America
>bothered with Brazil for a reason I am sure make sense to them
>Trump goes out saying Brazil is ripping them off and is their worst trading partner, despite the US having a 400 billion dollars trade surplus (according to the US government) since 2020, which by Trump's own narrative and formula would mean that Brazil is the country being ripped off
>easy access to brazilian goods makes american breakfast cheaper and more nutritious, with cheaper coffee and bovine meat
>decide to slap a 50% tariff on Brazil, then call Brazil the 'worst country on Earth'
>tariffs go in effect August 1st
>immediately bend over backwards and exclude more than half the imports from tariffs in the first day once americans realize that they are actively robbing american business of consumers and american consumers of cheap groceries
>insult Brazil anyways, then demand they come to the negotiation table
>propose to make tariff policy exactly as it was before the americans had a tantrum
>we refuse to partake in this nonsense
>sue the USA instead for issuing a political sanction and calling it a tariff, which is a crime according to the WTO

BRAZIL REFUSES TO NEGOTIATE WITH AMERICA, SUE THEM INSTEAD
BRAZIL'S REPLY TO TRUMP:
https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/internacional/en/business/2025/07/lula-responds-to-trump-says-tariff-hike-will-be-met-with-retaliation-under-reciprocity-law.shtml
>Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva criticized the decision by U.S. President Donald Trump to raise the tariff on Brazilian imports from 10% to 50% on Wednesday (9), saying the move will be met with retaliatory measures under Brazil’s reciprocity law.
>"Brazilian goods are vital for the wellbeing and daily expenses of the american people and the american farmer, and those who are paying the price for this illegal and unprovocked hike in tariffs will ultimately be the american population whom President Trump claims to hold as his first priority."
>"The claim of a U.S. trade deficit with Brazil is false. Official statistics from the U.S. government itself show a trade surplus of $410 billion in goods and services with Brazil over the past 15 years," Lula wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Brazil is currently hosting the BRICS+ summit, so all nations attending are equally furious. USA's tariffs are clearly retaliatory against Brazil due to its immense trade share with China and Russia.
What are the political implications of brazilians caring more about the american population than the US president?
Sometimes, when all men know are lies, it takes a monkey to tell you the truth.

You keep calling us all these ridiculous names.
Maybe it is because you do not have any other way to hurt us. Brazil was the one country that you had no reason to tariff, and you did so out of spite because our president was expelled from Israel after mocking 'the IDF's valiant struggle against a highly trained army of women and children in Gaza'.
