I have no sympathy for any farmer who voted for Trump. They had a similar situation in his first administration. Remember?
The shutdown is delaying Trump’s farm bailout. Farmers say it won’t be enough even when it happens.
Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again.Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden.Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic

Soybean farmers, coffee importers, tea importers, banana importers — all facing an existential crisis because the president is surrounded by hostile hyper-morons

We have spent a lot of time talking w South Dakota farmers over the past decade.What has happened to the US soybean-growing business is comparable to Great Depression. Black Plague, etc.By "what has happened," I mean "what Trump did to them," with these idiotic tariffs.

Straight up: I’m not onboard with farmers getting another bailout when so many voted for Trump two and three times. But what Trump is doing to them is brutal. I want to believe they’ve learned their lesson this time, but I don’t.Watch all the way through.

“Tariffs were a heart attack for farmers, immigration raids, a stroke. Local teenagers weren’t inspired to come to pick blueberries in 100-degree heat. 70% of workers vanished. 🌱 Fruit rotted in fields; one grower lost $5 million because no one was left to harvest.“
