Trump announces he’s handing 12 billion over to bailout farmers from the tariff money collected. Tariffs that destroyed the industry in the first place because of Trump. Robbing Peter to pay Paul. This is the dumbest timeline ever.

Lol, buying their votes so that they keep voting Republican in the upcoming midterms. And sadly, it will work. U.S. farmers are well aware that Trump’s stupid tariffs are destroying their industry, and yet they’ll keep voting against their own self interest over and over.

Sounds like someone needs to seize the means of production down there and stabilize the farming industry through bailouts and price controls.

whoa whoa whoa nevermind

Trump on John Deere: "We're gonna say, 'you're gonna reduce the prices.' They're gonna have to reduce their prices. Because farming equipment has gotten too expensive ... in many cases, you need about a 185 IQ to turn on a lawnmower."
Spoiler!


Seems like a good time to post one of my favourite Trump memes!

(spoilered for size)

I'd be yelling at that kid too. He's not overlapping, and the line he's on shows how much he missed. Must have a MAGA dad.

And now he says he is going to put "severe tariffs" on Canadian fertilizer. That will help those farmers out. The guy is a total idiot.

Greene, who has publicly called for the release of the Epstein files, said Trump did not want the documents released, saying publication of the files would "hurt people... I don't know what that means," Greene said. "I don't know who they are."
People would be hurt? ####ing monster. 1,000 women were hurt.

Nevertheless I still agree, because whether or not you voted for him, this is your president. You haven't done enough to prevent this stuff from happening, as a group, therefore you should suffer as a group.

This sudden attempt at a face turn should not be condoned. If you participate in this sort of madness, enable it, cheerlead it, there is no deathbed repentance that washes the slate clean. When the people who were a part of this nightmare are up against the wall (metaphorically, unfortunately), she should be right next to them.

I don't think Trump is referring to the women when he says it will hurt people.

remember, this is the woman who first got attention when she harrassed mass shooting survivors like David Hogg.

She's a disgusting human being and certainly doesn't deserve any credit for "turning on" Trump now.

Trump says his farm bailout 'would not be possible without tariffs.' His critics agree.
Trump is a socialist confirmed and MAGA voters are socialists.

MAGA voters are convinced that tariffs are paid by the foreign countries (because everyone tells them that) so they don't see it as socialist.
