This list may not be correct but I understand that China has not stopped or greatly reduced these exports from the US:
Pork
Beef
Crude Oil
LNG

So far they have not said anything about poultry, which last year they were the US's third largest market at 490.1M, behind Mexico at #1 (1.47B) and Canada at #2 (528.27 M).
If Canada and China both shop elsewhere for poultry it's going to put a world of hurt on the poultry industry.

What other exports has China stopped or would be a major blow to that industry if they did?

Trump is going to take my money and pay the industries he destroys. Just like he did in 1.0

It is economic insanity.
We never gained back the full grain market. This time tons of industries will be hit with markets lost forever.

Soybeans.
Lumber.
 
Good! I would absolutely prefer not to eat food from China if I could help it. At best it's inferior shit. At worst, it's poison,

Remember the Chinese tainted baby formula scandal? Some Chinese companies put toxic levels of melamine into baby formula to seemingly raise the protein levels. 300,000 kids were sickened with 54,000 requiring hospitalization. My wife and I and our 18 month old daughter were in China that year - luckily we brought our own powdered formula with us. Otherwise I shudder to think what might have happened.


My wife (who is a Chinese-American immigrant and still has family back home) had to buy baby formula here in the states and ship it to family in China for years.

Its selling them the food.

Trump should cut a check of $3,000 to every chicken producer in the US - wouldn't more than offset the loss of sales to China. That'd be awesome. And not effect the federal budget at all.

China's exports to the U.S. represent about 12% of their total of exports. China is more than willing to just stop exporting to the U.S. until the next Presidential election. Which is what Trump wants right? Now the U.S. can build their own Mardi Gras beads factory and the dozen or so 'high paying' jobs that come with it.
 
True but did you expect a MAGA to read the OP?

We need to set reasonable expectations here.
In fairness, the title would better have read, "Is poultry the next US export that China will ban?" but this this does prove your point. Only the headlines. Only the thread titles.
