President Trump is at the G7 Summit in France working deals with world leaders like Japan’s Prime Minister Abe Shinzo

The two leaders just announced a new trade deal that would bring in $7 billion to the US.

Detractors are complaining because the US and Japan have only agreed in principle on the trade deal, but the two leaders and the countries have a very good relationship with each other. The deal will likely be signed into an agreement at the end of September when both leaders plan to attend the UN General Assembly.

President Trump is standing up for our farmers and ranchers! 

“This is a tremendous deal for the United States.”

“It’s a really tremendous deal for our farmers.”

“We have excess corn in various parts of our country with our farmers because China did not do what they said they were going to do. And Prime Minister Shinzo, on behalf of Japan, they’re going to be buying all of that corn.” — President Trump

US Trade Rep. Lighthizer chimed in with details on the deal:

The deal includes exports of beef:

“We sell over 2 billion dollars worth of beef to Japan, and this will allow us to do so with lower tariffs and to compete more effectively with people across the board.”
