U.S., China Reach Substantial ‘Phase One’ Trade Deal, Trump Says
Trump told reporters at the White House that the two sides are very close to ending the trade war and it will take up to five weeks to get the deal written. He spoke after talks with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told reporters Trump had agreed not to proceed with a hike in tariffs to 30% from 25% on about $250 billion in Chinese goods that was supposed to have gone into effect on Tuesday.

How much relief will that bring to the already hurting farmers?
Maybe get your head out of the sand and read this James.
Farmers Sticking By Trump Even As Trade Wars Bite
But, Ulrich is not mad at Trump. He loves Trump's hands-off approach to environmental regulations. And he appreciates the $28 billion aid package that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has distributed to compensate farmers for what they're losing in export sales.

"How much relief will that bring to the already hurting farmers?"
Your premise is invalid.
Care to try again?
or shall I just tell you why you're wrong, again?
Hey Jane, how powerful was Marie Yovanovitch testimony?
VERY powerful indeed.
Rep. Denny Heck (D., Wash.) said the long day of testimony “went like a New York second. It was that amazing, that powerful, that impactful.” He didn’t offer specifics about what Ms. Yovanovitch said.
The White House didn’t reply to a request for comment.
Ms. Yovanovitch had been ordered by the State Department, at the direction of the White House, not to testify voluntarily, Democratic lawmakers said, which necessitated a subpoena by the three Democratic-led committees in the House of Representatives. Ms. Yovanovitch complied with the subpoena, testifying for hours behind closed doors before lawmakers from both parties with the House Intelligence, Oversight and Foreign Affairs committees.
A second diplomat, Gordon Sondland, agreed to appear next week in response to a subpoena issued by the House after the State Department this week blocked Mr. Sondland from testifying voluntarily. Mr. Sondland, a Republican donor and former hotel executive who is the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, was expected to be questioned on the role that he and other officials played in crafting an unreleased August statement in which Ukraine would commit to looking into Mr. Biden in exchange for a White House meeting between Mr. Trump and Mr. Zelensky.
YEP, READ ALL THREE NPR ARTICLES ABOUT FARMERS
Pat Westhoff, who directs the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute at the University of Missouri, says farm bankruptcies are up sharply this year, and that trade aid payments are crucial.
"Every dollar counts right now, so it's a difference between profit and loss for many producers," Westhoff says.
So, the president has mitigated some of the problems he's caused farmers. Sara Wyant, president of Agri-Pulse Communications who's been polling farmers on Trump for years, says they've stood by him through it all.
"That is not going to hold forever," warns Wyant, "...when some of them start to face, well, either it's Trump or going out of business, they're not going to be still voting for Trump."
what nonsense.
what a stupid comment
