Part of winning against China means taking it on the agriculture chin at least for a time...reckon Terry didn't like that and wanted to ease that...but it would undermine the winning, so...

Thanks and goodbye.

One sign of being an under developed county is exporting raw materials (soy beans) and importing manufactured goods (iphones).

As with all things it is the perversions of natural systems that cause imbalance and friction...free and fair trade should be mutually beneficial for all parties as well as not being injurious to any party...perverted ideology like communism, socialism and fascism are distortions in nature and always seek advantage and/or injury of opponents...it is why the Communist Chinese must be checked, not just to stop unfairness but to prevent injury...they steal tech and plow it back into their military which in turn will be made to bully and subjugate more and more others...such a trajectory if allowed to persist will be suicidal for humanity.

  I would bet other countries are watching what Trump does and will follow suit.
