Trump is doing this because he feels threatened by brics+, but he decided to use the upcoming arrest of far right politicians as a justification. That has however put a lot of strain on the right as they are seen as responsible for harming brazilian economy in an attempt to save themselves from accountability, uniting the left in the process.
