Bessent on China: "At the meeting in Geneva when I asked them, 'Why didn't you continue buying soybeans and the other products' then had one word, and guess what it was? Biden."

They dont even try to make their lies believable

And in the same interview he also said this
Bessent: "It's unfortunate that Chinese leadership has decided to use American soybean farmers as a hostage or pawn in the trade negotiations. American farmers overwhelmingly voted for President Trump ... you should expect news on Tuesday on substantial support for our farmers."

So what is it? Are they not buying because of Biden or because of the trade negotiations going on right now? With trump and his tariffs as why they need these negotiations. China is buying from Argentina...that country you just gave 20 billion dollars to.
With the promise of relief coming next week, if i was a US farmer I wouldnt hold my breath waiting for that help.
