We know that just sitting around blathering hasn't worked for 25 or 30 years, so we have to try something new.
I don't think we should accept anything that doesn't have structural change and is enforceable.
But I have real concerns with the way the Administration has approached the problem, creating and escalating a trade war that has caused harm to many businesses.
Hang tough. Don't go for the soybean solution. Go for the structural change. This is our one chance.
