What do the midterm results tell us about Trump’s trade policies?

The World

President Trump’s escalating trade war with China is being felt across several industries in the United States. Soybean farmers are perhaps the hardest hit. The World’s Marco Werman checks in with Phil Sidles — a Trump supporter and soya farmer in Mechanicsburg, Illinois, who was previously featured on The World — about how he’s been affected by the tariffs and how he sees the results of the midterm elections. We also hear from The World’s Jason Margolis about what the results of the midterms mean for Trump’s trade policies.
