CNBC: My understanding is the White House said that China was gonna buy 12 million tons of soybeans from the US by January. That's approaching and they've only purchased 332,000. China has not confirmed that pledge. BROOKE ROLLINS: Your point is salient. We've got a significant way to go

Trump showed in his first administration that he’s happy to paper the record with bullshit for some flavor of political advantage. He asked Mexico to stop saying it wouldn’t pay for the Wall, even though it wouldn’t (& hasn’t). Could be Xi green lighted Trump to lie about soybeans.

All of these marvelous deals will take place in 2 weeks. Good times are just around the corner. The carrot is just out of reach of the donkey, but he's sure he can grab it soon. The MAGA crowd are the donkeys trusting Trump's promises that never come to fruition.

In case you missed it in the alt text, I photoshopped this faux Trump post. I made it last April when China said they'd stop importing all soybeans in response to Trump's April 2nd Tariffs.

Technically a legume-bar.😜 In case you missed it in the alt text, I photoshopped that faux Trump post. I made it last April when China said they'd stop importing all soybeans in response to Trump's April 2nd Tariffs.

I'd bet, Monsanto largest manuacturer of GMO soybean seeds, is one of his donors; Market Dominance By 2010, 93% of U.S. soybean acreage was planted with herbicide-resistant varieties. Patent Protection Farmers must sign agreements prohibiting them from saving seeds for replanting.

the reason the numbers only show 332,000 tons instead of 1.2 million tons is because of Joe Biden. How we are going to get to 12 million tons in a month and a half is going to be as easy as making 90 trade deals in 90 days.

Dear MSM, I don’t know whether you have picked up on this salient point, but “the White House said” invariably turns out to be grade A bullshit. Maybe stop being so credulous with this particular crop of bullshitters. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Donald Trump is a pathological liar, everyone knows Trump habitually lies compulsively. Why is this a surprise when it is discovered that Trump has lied to the Public? It seem the news media and general public are the one's in denial have the real problem, (Imagine Biden lying constantly?).

Reagan and Big Ag began destroying family farms in the 1980’s Farm Crisis. Highest farm bankruptcy rates: 1. 1987-Reagan 2. 1992-Bush41 3. 1998-Clinton (gop House&Senate) 4. 2019-Trump 5. 2003 Bush43 Farmers must enjoy being screwed, bc they consistently vote for Republicans who always oblige.

American entities buy and sell, but somehow China the country buys and sells. Why expect the agricultural entities to not be angry about the tariffs?

There will also be some pie in the sky by and by, or so I've heard... Many people are saying this. I think it will happen in about two weeks. It's going to be the best pie, too - better than any pie you have ever had.

"Your point is salient" = "I've no bullshit response to this truth." It's clear that the "deal" wasn't; that Xi handed Trump his ass again, got what he wanted at our expense, and Trump tried to sugarcoat it even though what Xi basically said was, "sure, we'll buy if we feel like it."

China has agreed to buy 12 million tons of soy beans. That's compared to the 26.8 million tons they bought in 2024. Who's going to make up the difference for American farmers?

It was actually “K” that agreed to that plan, we’ll have to look at it again. We’re looking at that very hard. Next two weeks It’s soybean week What a 🤡 show

333,000 tons instead of 12 million tons, 3% of what Trump said. It’s a good measure of Trump’s promise as he figures hundreds of thousands or millions it all the same when Trump lies on a daily basis.

Trump is always “inking the deal.” Notice she said this week or next week, which fits perfectly into Trump’s standard answer of “in about two weeks.” And those two weeks never come. Until those soybeans have actually landed on China’s soil, there is no deal, and there probably never was.

"salient points", that's what I like about current news readers, trying to impress with the fancy words. Who says "salient" anymore? Only news readers from media companies that sold out to the dumbest person on the planet. Too bad CNBC seems to have fallen into that pit. Can't trust anyone anymore.

Wow. Useless man child in a fat suit and covered in orange makeup lies for the 10 billionth time. Why is this news? His entire life is one long, grifting lie. Why on earth did anyone think that public office would change that? I bet there are a lot of Jaguars getting real fat off farmers' faces....

Only 7% of soybean crops feed humans, w the rest used in Animal Ag, stripping Earth's rain & aboriginal forests. Our animal cousins dying off, leaving no offspring. The imbalance caused by A Ag to all elements is outrageous. Plant-foods must replace. A taste for flesh is not an excuse to kill Earth.

Meanwhile, China is preparing for war with Japan! Thanks to Trump's MWGA - Make War Great Again! Instead of lobbying for global peace, Trump is normalizing countries declaring war on their neighbors! I blame Trump for all of this!!

In 2024, China bought 26.8 million tons of soybeans from the US. But we’re “close to inking” a deal for them to buy 12 million tons this year. It seems like last year was a lot better for soybean farmers than this year. What changed?
