US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins on Thursday claimed American farmers are heading toward a “golden age,” even as President Donald Trump’s policies are increasingly driving them into financial distress.

During an appearance on Fox Business, Rollins discussed Trump’s upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping to talk trade between the two countries.

“For our farmers and our ranchers, for farm security, for food security, making sure our farmers can prosper as they move into what will hopefully be a golden age under this president, these trade deals are very important,” Rollins said. “But the president also understands that the over-reliance on a country like China has massive implications from a national security standpoint.”
