US tariff policy is having unexpected consequences for consumers — in some places. Coffee is becoming cheaper in Brazil, and in Mexico tomatoes are less expensive. US shoppers, meanwhile, are facing rising grocery bills.
A year ago, the prices of food were through the roof, public opinion was against Lula and there were protests because of it all.
Now?
The far right is sinking faster than the Bismark, Lula is in a good position to be reelected without a run-off election and prices are going down again (we even had a bit of deflation in August).
A lot of this has to do with The Orange Pustule’s reaction to the conviction of his criminal friend Boslonaro. In the end, Drumpf is the best campaign manager Lula could hope for.
This makes me happy that even though the country i live in is really shitting the bed right now, our shitting is having SOME positive outcome for others in the global community.
Brazilian here.

Fuck Drumpf.
can confirm. the nationalistic anti-tax push lula had to go into publicly in recent weeks shot his popularity up.
the fascists are grasping at straws.
I’d love for some more direct trade from us here in Canada to the other countries in the Americas, specially coffee!
Mercosur-EFTA-CA-SEA global free trade regime let’s go
Works for me
