One of the skills the "Hot Lips" maid-superior acquired at the White House is how to lie to millions of people in their face. Grand-Daddy Donald keeps praising her for her lips for three reasons: 1- He likes them young, 2- She excels at lying and 3- She blames Biden for everything that senile Grand-Daddy is inflicting on America and the world.
She says China was not buying soybeans from the US during the Biden Administration. THAT'S A LIE. China WAS buying soybeans from the US during the Biden Administration. China stopped buying soybeans from the US only when senile Dozy Don imposed his stupid tariffs. So American soybean farmers suffered and complained, but they are white MAGA racists who keep voting for him and his MAGA shills. So Dozy Don begged the Chinese dictator to resume buying soybeans from the US and is bailing the farmers out with billions of dollars. All because his incompetence wrecked the system that was in place. Now he and KKK Leavitt claim he fixed a Joe Biden problem.
That is pure Donald Dumb strategy. He starts with no problem. He creates the problem. Problem festers for a while, at which point he goes TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) and retreats back to the no-problem situation. Then he brags about having fixed the problem. They say he's an arsonist-fireman: He starts the fire then claims to put it down. I say he's just an arse.

Karoline Leavitt Roasted Over Blatantly False Claim on Trump’s Tariffs Impacting Farmers
Karoline Leavitt
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt sparked a wave of condemnation on Tuesday by claiming China was not buying soybeans during the Biden administration as a way of defending President Donald Trump’s tariffs, which were the actual reason China stopped purchasing soybeans from American farmers this past May.
Leavitt made the blatantly false claim while on Newsmax, “Another huge win for our farmers. Following his successful meeting with President Xi Jinping in South Korea, President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing, or begin purchasing again, American soybeans, which is something China wasn’t doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or for the country at the time.”
“But now they know President Trump is not messing around. He’s going to stand up for American farmers and American families. And so those purchases have begun from China, and American soybeans are being exported from the United States as we speak because of President Trump. He promised the farmers he would be there for them. He is delivering on that promise,” she added.
On Monday, Trump announced a $12 billion bailout for farmers impacted by the loss of access to foreign markets – something that also happened as a result of his trade wars during his first term. In September, Politico reported on the key background:
China has not purchased any U.S. soybeans since May, according to the American Soybean Association. Beijing has pivoted to suppliers in Brazil and Argentina — logging huge orders for Latin American beans and leaving U.S. farmers in the cold and panicking.
The dramatic shift echoes China’s response to the tariff war during Trump’s first term when the value of U.S. soybean exports plunged to $3.1 billion in 2018 from $14 billion in 2016.
Leavitt’s claim that China’s buying freeze had begun during the Biden administration was quickly called out by economists and journalists online, many of whom accused her of ham-fistedly trying to pass the blame.
Erica York of the Federal Tax Policy Foundation shared a graph showing the drop of Chinese soybean purchases during Trump’s two terms in office and added, “Which president presided over two major drops in U.S. soybean exports to China?”

Political Science Professor Branislav Slantchev replied, “It will surprise no one that reality is exactly the opposite of what Baghdad Barbie says. Trump has decimated the farmers — twice — so it remains a mystery why they keep voting for him.”

In related news: Down is up.
China bought 27m tons of US soybeans in 2024 and only 3m this year, due to Trump’s tariffs. China has now agreed to buy a total of 12m this year, but who knows? They bought zero dollars of anything under a $200b commitment during Trump 1.0. https://t.co/s1aAwUG0qc

It should be criminal for a government employee to flat out lie like this. At a bare minimum it should cost you your job. We used to make fun of N Korea and Iraq for shit like this… https://t.co/JLrG1p5JZx

With just a wee bit of effort – one can find this claim completely false.
The issue – L'Orange's base refuses to do even the tiniest bit of work. So the Admin just keeps on shoveling out the lies.
If one repeats the lie often enough, it becomes one's truth. https://t.co/5H4hL5GBi6— George Young (@GYCoMo) December 9, 2025
Hey Karoline: fact check!
US soybeans were sold to China under Biden.
They declined after Trump won the election, and halted when he introduced his “judgement day” tariffs.
That’s why your ‘Dear Leader
’ has to now do farmer bailouts! https://t.co/Wuzjn7TbxTpic.twitter.com/XgZWk3tlUp
