they do insist, at least officials that i ve spoken to, that they did reach that agreement on friday. harris: all right, we are inside of about a minute warning. i do want to add this, because we want to let people know what the president is going to do. he is going to tour the southwest iowa renewable energy in council bluffs, iowa after landing, and that s the first of two events that he is partaking in today. he delivers remarks at the republican party of iowa annual dinner in west des moines tonight, as well. just looking ahead to all of this, and this is an opportunity for joe biden to see something that maybe he hasn t seen up close, although in different parts of the state, but he hasn t seen it on a same-day schedule. and that is rally the voters and the base, president trump. that s a very different person than you might think would see for more of a distance. as we await the president to talk, just seconds from now, i want to give you a few seconds
obama, biden, and for many, many years, in all fairness to them. china is a major competitor, and right now china wants to make a deal very badly. it s me right now that is holding up the deal. and we are going to either do a great deal with china, or we are not doing a deal at all. right now china is paying us billions and billions of dollars. they never gave us $0.10, and china ate our country alive during obama and biden. they ate us alive. and then biden has some sort of relationship financially, or his son, with china? tell me about that. because china ate the united states alive economically, and it s a shame. reporter: mr. president, how do you respond to the democrats saying president trump: policy attacked me. she was here, she made a horrible statement that i m sure she wished she didn t make. she made a horrible statement
tone and tenor. as you said in your own words, he went off on joe biden. we already know from notes ahead of joe biden s visit to iowa, which got rescheduled because of a granddaughters graduation, of the enough scheduled on the same day as the president of the united states. but, you know, we report the facts. when you look at what joe biden is expected to say and how many times he says the president s name, my goodness, it is on. president trump noted that, saying, if you re going to say my name 75 times or however many times it is, no you got a problem that can only be good for president trump. he s been criticized to some degree for being kind of running on the anti-trump message as opposed to the what s good about the democratic party and what would be good about a democratic president. so he is certainly still following that particular playbook today, and probably in a stronger way than we ve ever
in the president taking him on over china. well, and i m so pleased the president is taking him on over china, because china has been a thorn in our side, if you will, when it comes to trade policies. harris, if you were to go with me, into all of our rural areas in tennessee, and talk to those farmers, they would look at you and say, let me tell you something right now, we are going to stand with the president, try to resolve this china issue once and for all. and they want a fair market price. they want free trade. they want fair trade. they want trade. they do not want aid. donald trump gets that. harris, you have talked to him time and again. you know this. he understands that you ve got to be a tough negotiator with these guys. and that s what he s doing with china. i m glad that he is being very firm when it comes to huawei and
they re moving right down, 6,000 soldiers, to their seven border. who ever heard of? do you think we had that two weeks ago? two weeks ago i will tell you what we had we had nothing. the reason we had nothing is because mexico felt they didn t have to give us anything. i don t blame them. but this is actually ultimately going to be good for mexico, too. and it s good for the relationship of mexico with us. so here is your thing, they all say, he doesn t i give you my word, insight here, and i would love to do it. but you will stop it, you will analyze it. every single letter, you will see. but in here is the agreement. reporter: [indistinct question] president trump: look, nancy is a mess. the democratic party is a mess. they are doing everything they can to win the election in 2020. they are guilty of many crimes. many, many crimes, what they ve done.
