The Soybean Farmers of our Country are being hurt because China is, for "negotiating" reasons only, not buying. We've made so much money on Tariffs, that we are going to take a small portion of that money, and help our Farmers. I WILL NEVER LET OUR FARMERS DOWN! Sleepy Joe Biden didn't enforce our Agreement with China, where they were going to purchase Billions of Dollars of our Farm Product, but Soybeans, in particular. It's all going to work out very well. I LOVE OUR PATRIOTS, AND EVERY FARMER IS EXACTLY THAT! I'll be meeting with President Xi, of China, in four weeks, and Soybeans will be a major topic of discussion. MAKE SOYBEANS, AND OTHER ROW CROPS, GREAT AGAIN!

Gaslighting Detected:

Reframes self-inflicted tariff damage as China's choice
Implies tariffs are net profitable when costs are borne by US consumers

Reality Distortions:

Tariff revenue framed as free money rather than consumer cost
China's retaliatory actions reframed as mere negotiating tactics

Fact Checks (3)

"China is not buying soybeans for negotiating reasons only"

Mostly False

China reduced soybean purchases as direct retaliation for Trump's tariffs, not merely as a negotiating tactic

"We've made so much money on Tariffs"

Half True

Tariff revenue increased but is paid by US importers/consumers, not China. Net economic impact debated.

"Biden didn't enforce Agreement with China on farm purchases"

Half True

Phase One deal purchase targets were largely unmet, though enforcement mechanisms were limited and COVID disrupted trade flows

Psychological Analysis: Soybean Farmers / Tariff Defense Post

Overview

This post is a classic supply-seeking and damage-control communication addressing economic harm Trump's own tariff policies have caused soybean farmers. It follows a well-established pattern: acknowledge harm → externalize blame → promise rescue → patriotic rallying cry.

Authorship

Posted at ~1:54 PM ET (Trump likely in D.C. given Portland/shutdown activity). The post is notably long, structured, and policy-focused — yet contains Trump's characteristic ALL CAPS emotional punctuation, the "Sleepy Joe Biden" epithet, and the riff on "MAKE ___ GREAT AGAIN." This reads as a hybrid: possibly aide-drafted framework with authentic Trump embellishments. The emotional exclamations and tangential Biden attack feel genuine; the policy specificity suggests some staff input.

Psychological Dynamics

The core dynamic is denial of responsibility for farmer harm caused by his own tariff war. The causal chain (Trump tariffs → China retaliates → farmers hurt) is reframed as China's "negotiating" tactic, with Biden blamed for not enforcing a prior agreement. This is textbook externalization.

The promise to redirect tariff revenue to farmers functions as a grandiose rescue narrative — the leader who both created and will solve the problem, cast purely as savior.

Rhetorical Structure

Acknowledge pain (farmers hurt)
Externalize cause (China, Biden)
Promise rescue (tariff money to farmers)
Patriotic fusion (farmers = patriots)
Forward action (Xi meeting)
Slogan close (MAKE SOYBEANS GREAT AGAIN)

This is sophisticated populist messaging that binds economic self-interest to patriotic identity.
