Trump said, if China doesn't buy anymore, the US will retaliate! On October 14, Trump stated that he believes China is intentionally not buying our soybeans, causing difficulties for our soybean farmers, which is an act of economic hostility. We are considering terminating our edible oil business with China, as well as other trade projects, as retaliation. For example, we can easily produce edible oil ourselves, and we don't need to buy it from China.
Evidently, seeing that we are not buying American soybeans, Trump once again issued a threatening statement to retaliate against us. Faced with such warnings, we still advise the US to stop this kind of rhetoric. In fact, more and more people in the US now realize that it's because of Trump himself starting the trade war that American growers have lost orders, and they are increasingly pointing their anger at Trump himself.
Now, Trump's threat and warning towards us is essentially a way to shift the focus of domestic issues in the US, using us as a scapegoat, but this tactic won't change the reality of the oversupply of US soybeans. As for Trump's threats, they have no effect on us at all. The more intense Trump's tone is, the more anxious he is. Not having American soybeans is not a big problem for us. If Trump is willing, he could mobilize Americans to press soybeans into soybean oil, which might solve the problem of oversupply of US soybeans!
