China has a way of not actually buying it. They will pick at quality or certification and refuse to pay. It will be hit and miss - you'll feel like you're herding cats.Australia recently went through this when our PM supported an enquiry into source of covid.
As you say, they've got plenty of ways to greatly reduce purchases without declaring a trade war. That's why I fact-checked the original post, and found it to be... in error.
There goes the suppression on Texas ranchers. Republican Senator John Cornyn must have his phone off the hook. The Republican Senators have been set up for huge losses. Most likely the end of their careers. If not violent lynch mobs. Rand Paul voted against a bill to make lynching illegal too.
Meanwhile, Musk is secretly negotiating with China to buy shares of his companies and has launched the “latest” model Tesla in China first. Not available in the U.S.
I wonder if Canada will break ranks with USA and reduce the tariffs on Chinese goods. Probably not, there's other stuff going on between China + Canada.
You should have been cheering for China long ago. It's because you have believed western lies churned out by US leaders and media, that you didn't take any notice of the truths. Youvd been gadlit for decades.
It's the same with Russia, they have no idea about the geo-politics being played out in the Ukraine, people are not critical enough to realise they are ill-informed, or even what they think they know is just the propaganda they have been fed
As an Australian, we have been the subject of Chinese trade actions. They won't necessarily "ban" it, however it will be impossible to sell it to them.
So the Canadians have ceased buying pork & now China is cancelling out beef.
The Stockmarket is going through the floor

Wow how can America sustain this move to DonOld’s version of greatness.
The voters are now in the Find Out phase.
Wow. They'll have to start selling it to us now for the same prices they sell it to the rest of the world! Can't wait for the prices to drop that much!
Good for Australia, yes but oh I dream of the steaks we use to eat 50yrs ago not the stressed out tough meat we get nowadays. Once the the meat was hung long enough before they cut up.
Yes I know , but why do I have to be a well to do Australian to afford it. Oh I know because we have supermarkets that rip everybody of including the farmers. We use to have your local butcher with is supplier or grew there own. Where are they now?
yeah, this, when I googled it I got this, Reuters is fairly reliable too. so the original post is not accurate. China is suspenging imports from various countries citing oversupply causing losses to its domestic producers is more accurate. Argentina Brazil are just if not more affected.
Yikes. Humpty Trumpty is gonna have some ‘splainin’ to do. He loves “his” farmers, and “his” farmers supposedly will be over-the-moon in love with him. Um, yeah.
They’re already taking our best cuts from here. Haven’t been able to find veal steak at the Supermarket in years & if you do, it’s typically from AUD$36-$48 per kilo, depending on grade.
You're welcome.
I am one of those annoying accounts who doesn't post anything without first fact-checking and I get irritated when people knowingly spread misinformation . We all make mistakes and that's cool but I see that account did not remove the meme even after it acknowledged my reply.
That is all fine and good however I will **always* speak up when speculation is presented as fact.
Want to have a discussion or debate over an opinion, great, just don't misinform people
That is my point
They voted for trump thinking of those socialism subsidies they got the last time trump was president & opted for tariffs 😳 they may not be so lucky this time! No more subsidies 😳
This isn’t rocket science people. Tax the rich and corporations at the same rate as the rest of us, eliminate the payroll tax cap, eliminate deductions. Bingo, government funded, medicaid/medicare/SS fully funded. DOGE can get F’ed and we the people have a happy life.
Hope I can keep affording it, but tbh it’s not that much more expensive than getting it in the supermarket. And animal welfare is high on my priority list. I’d rather pay more and know the animals are treated humanely.
We all know, right, that Smithfield, the largest meat processor in the US, is Chinese owned, and in the US, so not liable to US tariffs. Like an end run straight up the middle.
Once upon a time I had a friend who’s family raised cattle for consumption and when they went to the auctions to sell cows he said McDonald’s always bought the sick and weak cows on the cheap. 🤷🏼♀️
Is this true? If so, I’d love to see the source. Recent articles just state China levied additional duties on certain imports from the US, including beef.
It’s easier to find a new porter to purchase from than a new market to sell to.
"China's customs authorities suspended beef imports from seven companies in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Mongolia on Monday amid record imports last year that led to an oversupply and heavy losses at farms."
I tried to map out all food trade agreements once-OMG! Food Trade may have started with good intentions but quickly morphed into silly $€¥£.
While US imports beef-it’s selling beef. Beef logs more miles than holiday travellers-apparently.
Graph is just US imports. Tons of back & forth globally.
What MAGA don’t realise, is that when tariffs are dropped, the market is unlikely to go back to before. It would incur costs, and with the volatility in the GOP, it can never guarantee another Trump clone wouldn’t t be elected. The US is going to lose long-term business/markets.
Well played, Trump. you will soon basically have one large segment of your voters bankrupt. maybe they will finally get them to realize who and what he is.
Damn!!! To get all that lost business back, the US is becoming a shithole ran by a shitty and inept administration…but “he’s a businessman who is running it like his business”
What?? The 6x bankrupt millionaire, who screwed over workers. Yup he’s doing exactly that.
Take that all of you MAGA ranchers. Can't wait to hear your whining about how your way of life is threatened. Or how courtesy of the Libs, wolves are literally at your door. My family of ranchers, many no longer with us, would not recognize you or the comic characters on "Yellowstone."
This is misinformation unfortunately. There is an article among the comments, but its not relevant to the meme that's being abused for likes and engagement.
Thanks for the reply. That was my guess as well, but wanted to make sure.
It's kind of weird, I've had two people link two articles that have nothing to do with the post, and when I responded as such, one person lost their mind. :D
Thanks for sharing, but this doesn't have anything to do with what was stated in the original post. This is a 10% tariff on US beef, not cancelling US beef orders.
The Agriculture Dept axed 2 programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from local farms & ranchers, halting more than $1 B in federal spending. USAID used many tons of produce for their programs abroad. Trump to farmers: Have fun!
Wow! China is not purchasing US meat—That’s really going to hurt the major US Meat companies. I vote for purchasing from Beyond Meat – it’s plant based meat that tastes really yummy-like real meat. Let the animals live! OK. I do like an occasional prime rib steak.
Hope they enjoyed all 15 seconds of owning the libs. Now they need to figure out how to put food on their table. Though I hear there are farms suffering a labor shortage...
Not surprising though, is it? The US beef herd is at its lowest since the 1950s due to years of drought, and imported beef to the US from Brazil, Argentina and Australia has surged due to the soaring costs of domestically produced beef. Why would China want to buy expensive US beef, tariff or not?
I kinda hate going against our own, but by and large they voted for this idiot. Did they think other countries would just bend over so Trump can screw them over without retaliation? You get what you vote for!
Let’s see how many farmers Trump puts out of work. Canceling US Aid shoots farmers in the foot. Why? Last year US Aid purchased 500 Million TONS of food from farmers. The woke and useless parts of program should be nixed- but what will farmers do when they grow all this food and have no buyer?

Which means they're still buying it.
Voted for him

Canada has a more diverse international trade portfolio than the US. Fact.
The war hasn't even started yet! Don't put a dumb fuck in the White House and mess with global trade. It's a bit complicated.
Trump did this.

The shit gives me the creeps. You never know what conditions their food was processed in, or if they even have any food quality standards.

This will lower American beef prices tho.
Eh, we didn't need Oxygen. 🤷♀️
FAFO
The stable genius cripples another segment of the economy.
With trump and musk fucking with the FDA the chance of getting sick by an American made product has increased significantly.
I wish I could buy Canadian meat but unfortunately live in a red state and I support their tariffs on red states.
It’s easier to find a new porter to purchase from than a new market to sell to.
Is the opening paragraph................
As such, the article is unrelated to OP's post. By posting it in the way you did, you are promoting disinformation.
As a proud Canadian, I would love that the usa is doing what was said, but they are not.
Please do not support disinformation in any form.
