Trump to give $12bn bailout for farmers hurt by trade war
Trump administration’s plan is aimed at protecting US farmers affected by tit-for-tat tariffs targeting dairy, soy and pork farmers.
The Trump Administration has announced a multi-billion dollar aid package for US farmers.
It is being seen as an admission that Americans are being hurt by the president’s protectionist policies.
