SÃO PAULO, SP (FOLHAPRESS) – President Jair Bolsonaro joked with a photo of a bodybuilder to celebrate the cut in import taxes on food supplements, such as Whey Protein, and sports nutrition items.

The announcement made in his live last Thursday (16), dedicated to the “academy staff”, excited the candidate for re-election by the PL.

Whey Protein had import tax zeroed by Gecex (Executive Management Committee) of the Chamber of Foreign Trade for being among the seven Mercosur Common Nomenclature codes included in the List of Exceptions to the Common External Tariff, Letec.

The product is listed as a protein concentrate and textured protein substance.

This Friday (19), on his Twitter account, Bolsonaro countered the criticism of the reduction of taxes with a montage of his face on a bodybuilder’s body. In the image, Bolsonaro wears a green swim trunks with the number he will wear at the polls this year.

As of 9pm this Friday, the publication had 37,000 likes on Twitter.

The excitement of the President of the Republic is one of the main subjects of social networks, between criticism and praise, and memes.

A leader in Datafolha polls and Bolsonaro’s main rival in this year’s elections, Lula was also remembered.

The former president was considered the candidate best prepared to deal with the country’s problems such as hunger and poverty by most voters interviewed by the Datafolha poll, an opinion shared even by some supporters of other presidential candidates.
