Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Tuesday the Trump administration's plan to provide $12 billion in aid to American farmers who have been hurt by tariffs proved "we're not going to back down" against retaliation by China.
"The Chinese are convinced that they can cause enough pain to the American farmer that the Trump administration will blink," Gingrich, the former Georgia Republican congressman who was speaker from 1995 to 1999, told Neil Cavuto on Fox News.
"Frankly, if you look at the total behavior of the Chinese since 1991, it is an absurdity to allow it to continue — but when you start to change it, they're going to fight."
