Trump speaks to farmers, ranchers at White House

We are watching this Thursday as President Donald Trump hosts farmers, ranchers, cattlemen and agricultural producers from across the country for dinner at the White House. The Trump administration is working to spotlight an industry that has long been a cornerstone of both the U.S. economy and the president's political base. Thursday's gathering will coincide with the first official day of the Great American State Fair that kicked off on the National Mall this week to celebrate the 250th Independence Day.
