Josh of Silca does a good job of explaining how the tariffs are effecting
US companies certainly small ones, as ever it?s a moving target so may well
change.

Many countries have tariffs on products from the USA. I see no reason
why the USA shouldn't have tariffs on their products. Maybe it will
bring manufacturing back, maybe not. The USA used to be a
manufacturing powerhouse and the bureaucratic jackasses let it slip
away. I don't know if Trump's plans can save the country, but it was
definatly going to hell with the same old, same old plans. At least
he's trying something new.

USA tariffs used to be in line with most other countries, hence the easy
trade across countries and indeed multiple parts and so on, this is well a
trade war with China mostly.

I suggest that you stop paying attention to news sources that were,
for many years, telling you that Joe Biden was mentally and

News sources out of US are much less partisan indeed are levels of accuracy
regulations which one US style “news source” (GBnews) has attempted to
avoid by claiming they are entertainment rather than factual news to avoid
(not entirely) having to conform news standards!

    Brazilian tariffs are far higher than on the #FAKE_NEWS site.
Tax can be more than 100% of the price of an imported car. If you
import at US$ 10.000, expect to pay AT LEAST US$ 12500 tax, for a
total of US$ 22500. And then there's the importer's 20% " cut" on top
of that ....
    Not many honest people buy  imported cars.
    Our central bank is still run by Bolsonaro's minions.... and
they decide the value of taxes.

 Goes both ways.
 Brasil is a highly efficient producer of sugar, which is virtually impossible to import in to USA.  For the past 120 years across every administration.
 

It's possible, and is a regular occurance. There are just a lot of hoops to jump through
