Dude, American farmers were committing suicide because China wasn't buying soybeanz. Trump gave our USA Farmers BILLIONS in socialized freebie subsidies because of the damage inflicted on our farmers. China guys are heartily laughing at their deaths.

excerpt from that article:
"A Newsweek article in May detailed a Fox News interview with Patty Edelburg, vice president of the Washington-based National Farmers Union, which represents about 200,000 U.S. farms. In the interview she said, "It has been insane. We've had a lot of farmers—a lot more bankruptcies going on, a lot more farmer suicides. These things are highlighting many of the news stories in our local news."
Yeah, there certainly are many aspects to look at, but all the same, Trump rammed it up China's backside hard with those tariffs. I don't doubt that when all was said and done that China was making less money from the US with Trump in charge than when Obama was, or even Bush.
