Chinese agriculture officials who were due to visit U.S. farm states next week have canceled their trip to Montana as the officials will return to China sooner than originally scheduled, the Montana Farm Bureau told Reuters on Friday.

Guess they don’t want to become Dental Floss tycoons.
No, they thought they were on the way to an interim agreement to play for more time.

They must have figured out there would be eyes on them and they could not pick seeds out of the ground like they attempted to in Iowa a few years ago.

With Chinese Communists, literally everything is political.

I’m not saying US and China can’t do some business, but Americans need to have their eyes wide open. Everything there is connected to government, and everything is viewed and managed through a strategic, national interest, state-security lens.
Trump is finally forcing America to realize this.
Thanks

Slick Willie gave the Chicoms "permanent most favored nation" trading status. It was a huge mistake. I wonder if President Trump has the authority to rescind it.
Just who you jiving with that cosmic debris?
