I worked for a telecommunications equipment company that sold a lot of equipment into Brazil. You wouldn’t believe what we had to go through to sell into that country. We were always having to gin up the “country of origin” figures with local partners to make sales there.
Correction
We are not opening a trade war
We are entering one by which that we have been passively battered with no leadership to protect Americas greater interests than being plunderec
You can scrape Argentina off the map as far as I’m concerned.
Democrats and their captive media keep on getting surprised by Trump.
The bong hits keep coming. Happy New Year!
Good, keep raising them.
I would rather see tarriffs raised across the board on all countries, rather than a tit for tat. But I suspect tit for tat is more defensible politically with the globalist uniparty.
And it seems like he should be tarriffing agricultural products too, since that’s who it is hurting.
I agree. which is a sad thing. Beautiful country. Kinda like Kalifornia South.
Brazil is a major industrial/economic power.
The washington post calls it “opening new trade war” when it is actually improving the manufacturing job situation.
I have found Brazilians much friendlier than Argentinians.
Hi.
“I have found Brazilians much friendlier than Argentinians.”
Your statement is anecdotal. So is mine...I have found Brazilians much friendlier than Argentinians.
Much more friendly.

Be careful with those words.
They consider themselves to be the Italy of the Western Hemisphere!
Good - one of the things I hated - HATED - about the pre-Trump GOP was how they all loved free trade.
Free trade, like communism - works in theory but in practice it is destructive to societies.
I am for true reciprocal free trade between like systems (I include human rights and true respect for laws like the Anglo-Saxon system) with exceptions for raw materials not found here.
The trade war with all these countries is not new. Its just that we havent been fighting it but everyone else has.
I hate the MSM, RINOS and globalists. Hate is not a strong enough word.
Which means we dont need to subsidize them by letting them keep our goods out of their market. Reciprocity time, Open up or pay up.
Argentina, nothing but Commies and ex-Nazis.

MAGA!
I had a company in Brazil. Nothing there is straight, nothing is as it seems, especially when it comes to official documents and compliance.
Brasil o pais do futuro — and always will be — until it accepts the idea that effective and statutory tax rates should be the same.
