Nebraska Reacts to Potential Trade War With China

President Trump recently outlined a plan that would increase taxes and tariffs to products being exported to China. The Chinese would respond by laying out a plan that equates to $50 billion in tariffs to American exports such as soy beans, cars and other goods. With the two nations at an impasse, many believe that this could mean the start of a trade war. Despite President Trump tweeting that he doesn't believe this is the case, many politicians and organizations across the state of Nebraska disagree. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/981492087328792577 Farmers across the state would be effected by the potential trade war, a fact that is not lost on their elected officials.
