However, during a bilateral meeting on Thursday with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Trump said he planned to provide direct relief to struggling farmers. 

“We’re doing well because of tariffs. We’re doing unbelievable,” the president said. “We’re going to take some of that tariff money that we made [and] we’re going to give it to our farmers, who are, for a little while, going to be hurt until it kicks in — the tariffs kick in to their benefit. So we’re going to make sure that our farmers are in great shape, because we’re taking in a lot of money.”

U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and other Trump administration officials have hinted at new farm aid packages for months.
