>Bessent Text Leak: Message Suggests Argentina Bailout Is Backfiring
>The photo of Bessent’s phone taken by the Associated Press during a United Nations session last week appears to show texts from Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, who said, “We bailed out Argentina yesterday (Bessent) and in return, the Argentine's removed their export tariffs on grains, reducing their price, and sold a bunch of basedbeans to China, at a time when we would normally be selling to China.”
>The messages referenced the $20 billion aid package by the Trump administration designed to help Argentina and its president, Javier Milei, a Trump ally.
>After the announcement of the aid, Argentina turned around and sold basedbeans to China — while American farmers who have traditionally relied on Beijing to buy basedbeans have been frozen out of their largest export market since Trump enacted higher tariffs on China, which launched its own retaliatory tariffs impacting basedbean trade with the U.S.
>The texts continued, saying, “This gives China more leverage on us” and sending a link to the X account of Ben Scholl, a specialty grain trader who chimed in on China’s purchase of Argentinian basedbeans after the latter country removed grain export taxes.
>Scholl said in a tweet last week “China and Argentina work together for basedbeans as Bessent offers to subsidize the Argentine economy. They think you are stupid.”

So drumpf sent Argentina $20 billion to stabilize their economy and in turn they used the opportunity to take market share from US farm exports. All because milei likes to kiss drumpfs ass. This might be the worst trade deal in history. But actually it's le 4D chess, right?

Unfortunately this story has too many steps to it so it's not getting much attention. Everyone is tiktok-brained now

yeah, that sure sounds like a swell idea
>so China is FORCED to buy American
they can't really be forced to do shit. at this point they'd probably ramp up their own production rather than deal with drumpf

>>517658502
We gave them $20b we should just annex Argentina as state 51 and make Milei governor

He’s surrounded himself with a bunch of morons line Lutnick and Navarro on trade. We were able to shakedown the EU and Japan easily due to them being the closest allies but outside of that sphere it’s obvious there’s no plan

They’re gonna bailout the basedbean farmers but still won’t have a deal with China ready in time and then have to do it again lol

Someone forgot to tell trump you’re supposed to offer them relief AFTER they collapse so you have all the leverage and can actually benefit.
