Strong Dollar lowers emerging markets currency.

That makes their exports cheaper.
Brazilian prices fell sharply as a weaker real currency brought a flood of soybeans to market, weakening prices in the export market.

If in this example of soybeans, exports that compete with the US for the Chinese market, how can the Chinese import more from the US and lower the deficit?

Let's say there is a Trade War:

President Donald Trump has brought the United States and China to the brink of a trade war in an attempt to get Beijing to shrink its $375 billion trade surplus.

A proposed 25-percent import tariff on U.S. soybeans shipped to China would raise costs on U.S. imports by about $100 per tonne.

I am not seeing that deficit go down as DJT wants...
