Trump Said Japan is"Going to be Buying All of That Corn" That China Isn't. Here are the Facts.



We have excess corn in various parts of our country with our farmers because

China did not do what they said they were going to do.

And Prime Minister Abe Shinzo on behalf of Japan, they're going to be buying all of that corn."



As the table above shows

China’s domestic consumption of corn, in 2016, stood at 231 Million Metric Tons while

Japan consumed a rather paltry 15 MMTs.
And Japan’s consumption of corn is actually trending down.

As always, every freaking word that proceeded out of loudmouth’s corn-hole above was a lie.

Trump is lying to farmers’ faces, and they’re finally getting angry about it

One of the worst habits among the D.C. commentariat is the tendency to treat President Trump’s lies as if they possess magical qualities. We are constantly told that Trump’s lying “works,” a claim that rests on the idea that no matter what Trump says, his supporters will believe him.

It’s true that Trump supporters generally accept what he tells them. But the reverence accorded to Trump’s powers of deception sometimes seems to imply they have an almost paranormal quality. And this takes things way too far.

Case in point: American farmers. There are indications that they are now getting genuinely angry over Trump’s efforts to gaslight them so shamelessly over the impact of his trade war with China.

The New York Times has a good report that fleshes out the damage that farmers are sustaining right now — and their reaction to it. China’s retaliatory tariffs are closing off the biggest export market in the world — leading to a massive drop in exports of soybeans, pork, wheat and other agricultural products.


The administration has rolled out billions and billions of dollars in aid to farmers.

But farm loan delinquencies and bankruptcies are rising, and

the ripple effects are spreading,

with one major manufacturer of agricultural equipment cutting its profit outlook this month.

And Trump’s trade war is only escalating: Trump has increased tariffs on Chinese products yet again, and

China slapped new tariffs on $75 billion in U.S. exports. As the Times puts it, “farmers are beginning to panic.”

farmers’ representatives are growing angry about what Trump is telling them about all this.

Trump frequently makes such claims as “farmers are starting to do great again.”
That’s a lie.

But don’t take my word for it.

The New York Times reports that the head of a major farm group forcefully challenged that claim at a recent gathering with Trump’s agriculture secretary, Sonny Perdue:

Has President Trump's trade war cost China three million jobs? LIAR

Claim: President Trump says three million jobs have been lost in China as a consequence of the trade war with the United States.

Verdict: While estimates for China's employment vary widely, they do not generally support Mr Trump's claim. When asked, the White House directed us to a survey that gave a lower figure.

Job losses in manufacturing have been part of a longer-term trend

as China moves towards a more service-based economy with the creation of jobs in finance and technology, and this transition began even before the trade war started.

So, losses in the industrial sector need to be balanced against gains elsewhere across the economy.
China's manufacturing sector also faces pressure from countries in the region with cheaper labour costs.

The Chinese government has also given a particular emphasis to increasing employment in urban areas.

"Urban services have absorbed much of the labour from closed factories.

There is also reverse migration going from coastal provinces to their origin provinces like Anhui, Sichuan and Henan, where local industries are growing,"

“People are worried he’s going to cut a bad deal just to get himself out of this situation, to get the headlines out,”

“The chambers of commerce and business groups are not happy with this trade war.
