President Trump [Smithton]: Probably my first call; I'm gonna call up President Xi, I'm gonna say you have to honor the deal you made. We made a deal. You'd buy fifty billion dollars worth of American farm product, and I guarantee you he will buy it.
Grenell: For the past four years, while America and America's democratic-controlled White House have been distracted by wars, China is getting into our farmland.
Zeldin: China now owns three hundred and forty-nine thousand, four hundred and forty-two acres of agricultural land in the United States. That is up eighty-two percent from three years prior.
Reporter: President Trump earlier said that China is not living up to the Phase One Agreement [agriculture deal]. Does the White House have any comment?
Jean-Pierre: I'm just not going to comment on what he is saying.
President Trump: [Harris] wanted to defund the police. She did things in Minnesota that were so bad; she was bailing out people that wanted to kill the police, and were actually trying to kill the police and burning down Minneapolis.
President Trump: I just noticed behind me, John Deere tractors. I know a lot about John Deere, I love the company, but as you know, they've announced a few days ago that they're gonna move a lot of their manufacturing business to Mexico. I'm just notifying John Deere right now, if you do that, we're putting a two hundred percent tariff on everything that you want to sell into the United States.
President Trump: We' don't want you [China] buying our land. We don't want you taking the land and basically taking it off the market. We don't want you doing it, and they're buying at levels that nobody's ever seen before. We don't want you buying it. it's very easy to do. That's a very easy thing to do. But it's causing a lot of disruption, and that's what they want to do.
President Trump: I don't need them. I don't need congress, but they'll approve it [tariffs]. I'll have the right to impose them myself if they don't. The ones that understand business all support it.
