'Knew it was coming' (farmer bailouts): Wall Street Journal bashes Trump's 'self-destructive tariff folly' - [View all]

In a new op-ed published on Sunday, the editorial board argued that reports of a $10 billion bailout for America's soybean farmers reveal that Trump's tariff policy is not working as the president says it is. Trump's tariff policy towards China has caused the country to stop buying American soybeans. The move significantly disrupted America's soybean industry because China was one of America's largest soybean customers.


You knew it was coming," the editors wrote. "As President Trump’s tariffs damage farmers and businesses across the U.S., the victims are besieging the Administration for relief. The long lines at the Commerce and Agriculture departments are the latest proof of self-destructive tariff folly."
