Heard on the radio that no documents were actually signed and 'details still have to be worked out ". Also, while Trump is celebrating another big win, it's awfully quiet about this deal on the Chinese side.

Yeah, I'll believe this when the Chinese say it.

And the average over the last 5 years was 29M. So I guess it's better than not purchasing any at all, which was scaring the shit out of the US farmers, but it's no victory.

TACO gonna taco.

No doubt at a heavily discounted price. And stop calling it a 'trade dispute'. It's purely Trump being a dickhead bully for no reason other than to be a dickhead bully.

He gets no praise for this. U.S. farmers are still worse off now than if Trump did nothing

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 days ago

He hurt them and¹ undid like 15% of the damage!

He's gonna get so much fucking praise for this.

¹if he isn't lying
