President Trump secures yet ANOTHER trade victory, defying the 'experts,' as Indonesia eliminates a staggering 99% of their tariff barriers.

The claim contains several components: first, that President Trump secured another trade victory; second, that this victory defies 'experts'; and third, that Indonesia eliminated 99% of its tariff barriers. Multiple credible sources confirm that in July 2025, the Trump administration announced a landmark trade deal with Indonesia where Indonesia agreed to drop tariffs to zero on more than 99% of its trade with the United States and eliminate non-tariff barriers.foxbusiness.comfoxbusiness.comTrump announces 'huge win' for American businesses in landmark Indonesia trade...

However, the U.S. Did not eliminate tariffs on Indonesian imports; instead, it imposed a 19% tariff, down from a threatened 32%.nytimes.comnytimes.comTrump Administration Keeps 19 Percent Tariff on Indonesia in Trade Deal The claim that this is 'yet another trade victory' aligns with Trump's framing of the deal as a 'huge win' for American businesses.foxbusiness.comfoxbusiness.comTrump announces 'huge win' for American businesses in landmark Indonesia trade... The phrase 'defying the experts' is subjective and not directly verifiable; it reflects political rhetoric rather than an objective fact.

Overall, the core factual assertion about Indonesia eliminating most of its tariffs is accurate and supported by official statements and reporting. The U.S. Side retains tariffs, which nuances the claim somewhat. The timing and details are consistent across multiple high-quality sources from July 2025.

There is no direct evidence in the sources about expert opinions being defied, so that part remains an interpretive or rhetorical element rather than a factual one.
