8. I remember the Senate hearing on Australia

Sen. Warner noted that we don’t have a trade deficit with Australia, but Trump’s representative said Australia was obstructing beef imports from the US. Are we winning yet?

I’m sure that those in Trump’s orbit and many of his supporters felt “the world needs the US to survive “. To some extent this might be true but now we’re finding out that other countries have the ability to meet their needs elsewhere.

the live cattle supply is kind of low right now so cattle producers are actually getting fair prices for live animals. losing a market for processed beef wont affect farmers and ranchers for a while.
