McConnell on China: I Admire What Trump Is Trying To Do But I Hope We Can Get a Conclusion to This Soon, Rural America Needs It

‘The Chinese have been stealing our intellectual property’

EXCERPT:

MCCONNELL: "Well I'd sure like for it to reach some resolution soon. It's been very tough on American agriculture. And as you know, my party is very deeply based in rural America and small town America. So I hope the president can -- can get a good outcome here. The Chinese have been stealing our intellectual property and not playing by the rules a long time, so I admire what he is trying to do but I hope we can get a conclusion to this sometime soon. Because rural America needs it. And rural America also needs the USMCA. I mean, this is a -- a -- a big deal for American agriculture to get the new and improved deal with Canadians and Mexicans as well."
