‘Why, Just Out Of Curiosity?’: Watch Trump Ask Mnuchin To Explain Canceling China’s Farm Visits
Over the past 72 hours, there's been more than a little confusion around why a Chinese delegation led by Vice Minister for Agriculture and Rural Affairs Han Jun canceled a planned visit to farms in Bozeman, Montana and Omaha, Nebraska.
News that the trips were delayed sent US stocks sharply lower in afternoon trading on Friday, and on Sunday evening, China claimed the unexplained itinerary change had nothing to do with any acrimonious exchanges in working-level talks, or with Donald Trump's som
Mnuchin’s explanation doesn’t make sense. There being no presumption of truth in this Administration, I posit that it doesn’t make sense because it is not true.

This shit is just hilarious.
So very interesting. A Chinese wheat milling team came through a couple of months ago; and visited farms. I believe both in North Dakota, and then here in Oregon. They aren’t buying much wheat right now; but our relationships haven’t been altered significantly. Good visit, good folks; not that different than any other trade team coming through from any other country. Members of the team were employees of companies we have sold wheat to in the past, including Cofco I believe. Mnuchin must not have been aware of the trade team we hosted, or we are just to far down on the ladder. We are just the people growing and selling the wheat after all.
Thanks for the info. It’s nice to hear about actual experiences from those dealing directly with Chinese firms.
How many hundreds of more lies until they get just a llittle better at it?
PS — can anyone tell me where I can buy some agriculture?
I believe that the POTUS has some for sale – the biggliest, beautifulest, most covfefe ag…
Still don’t know what my favourite Trumpism is although this one will always take some beating –
“What I won’t do is take in two hundred thousand Syrians who could be ISIS. I have been watching this migration. And I see the people. I mean, they’re men. They’re mostly men, and they’re strong men. These are physically young, strong men. They look like prime-time soldiers. Now it’s probably not true, but where are the women?.
So, you ask two things.
Number one, why aren’t they fighting for their country?
And number two, I don’t want these people coming over here.”
It’s just madness distilled into its most perfect form… building up to a crescendo of babble…
