President Donald Trump said in a social media post Wednesday that American cattle ranchers "have to get their prices down," and that the tariffs he's enacted are "the only reason they are doing so well, for the first time in decades."

"The Cattle Ranchers, who I love, don't understand that the only reason they are doing so well, for the first time in decades, is because I put Tariffs on cattle coming into the United States, including a 50% Tariff on Brazil," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

"If it weren't for me, they would be doing just as they've done for the past 20 years - Terrible!" the post continued, adding "It would be nice if they would understand that, but they also have to get their prices down, because the consumer is a very big factor in my thinking, also!"
