Trump is bribing farmers to make up for the damage he is doing with his tariffs. I wonder what Republicans would do if a Democratic president gave billions of dollars to primarily Democratic groups like women-owned businesses or HBCUs?
"At $28 billion so far, the farm rescue is more than twice as expensive as the 2009 bailout of Detroit’s Big Three automakers, which cost taxpayers $12 billion." https://t.co/nTsH1I6et9 via @BW

The vice president of the North Dakota Farmer's Union, Bob Kuylen, says he lost $400,000 because of Trump's trade war with China. Kuylen says farmers have "pretty much lost all of our markets since Trump took over." https://t.co/jamqfKbQ0H

It's heartbreaking to see farmers left behind by @realDonaldTrump. From expanding access to health & mental health care to combatting climate change, there's so much Dems can do to support them. We must make sure these communities are part of our platform https://t.co/kmHW0Ht9Ak
