Trump said China promised in the phase one trade deal to buy billions of dollars of U.S. farm exports, but "Sleepy Joe Biden didn’t enforce our Agreement with China."
"It’s all going to work out very well," Trump continued. "I LOVE OUR PATRIOTS, AND EVERY FARMER IS EXACTLY THAT! I’ll be meeting with President Xi, of China, in four weeks, and Soybeans will be a major topic of discussion. MAKE SOYBEANS, AND OTHER ROW CROPS, GREAT AGAIN!"
