Nobody seems to have learned the lesson from the first iteration of his tariff experiment. Is it right that the taxpayer should be on the hook for the economic damage caused?

@SunshineGirl Proving my point .. your involvement is focused specifically on countering Trump. Why try to claim otherwise?

The question should be..
Will trump save the farmers with the taxes he has collected from you and me, in the disguised form of tariffs?
And to be clear, last time around, farms were rescued, for a minute. Many were bankrupted. Many tapped out and sold out. Guess to whom.
Also, farmers overwhemingly voted for trump. There are scores of videos of farmers crying about that vote.
Uninformed and/or uneducated, or so hateful that voting against their own interests seemed prudent.
And this is only the beginning.
We aren't even talking about unharvested crops laying in fields for lack of farm labor.

@DogMan if there is a midterm. Do you understand that trump is sensationalizing small peaceful protests, declaring the protesters as terrorists, to justify sending in forces to agitate the populace? This will be his reasoning to declare martial law. He was all over ukraine postponing elections because of the war there.
A real war. People dying and cities razed.
We have never, wartime or peacetime, cancelled or postponed elections.
But that is only my opinion. As it was my opinion that trump's economic policies would cripple the farming industry. And he would sanction disappearing people off the streets to be illegally thrown into camps. Citizens, legal immigrants, illegal immigrants....grandmothers...terribly ill children.
If you cannot see that this administration is facistic, inhumane, a criminal organization(you get your new trump watch yet? Or how about your trump 2028 hat?) then you arent inclined to look.
It isn't a horrible thing to admit you were wrong all along. That is what a person that chooses to use their critical thinking skills would do. That's what a true patriot would do.

@Carla Don't worry yourself silly Carla, we will have elections. We will NOT have martial Law.
Stop letting the media drive you crazy. Antifa is stopping the Feds from enforcing the laws that both Democrats
and Republicans enacted. I know your media won't allow the violent videos to be shown, but they are
nevertheless happening.
If Democrat politicians do not want illegals deported, they need to change the laws they voted for.
Only Nazis ignore laws that they themselves enacted. Why have a law if you are not going to enforce it?
Why are Democrats not saying that they want to change the laws to allow anyone on the planet to come
to America and feed on our system? Why? Because Americans do not want people to come here
illegally.

@DogMan no one wants people here illegally. Not for votes. Some business owners do indeed prefer illegal labor as it is easier to cheat and control them.
What people do want, though, is to make immigration less difficult. Charging those who wish for a visa a hundred grand isn't how it's done. Neither is removing people with valid visas. Those given temporary status. Citizens that are brown.
Btw...immigrants pay billions into our system, getting little in return.
Ice is a private, masked militia, untrained, unqualified,, to act as trump's brownshirts.
If you cannot see the similarities, you don't read. No one enacted a law that gets a praying pastor shot in the head with gas shots. Pepper rounds.
Or to throw citizens to the ground because of some yelling.
The media doesn't drive me crazy. The lawlessness, petty retribution and a frickin ball room kinda does.
So does the idea that one prime, dry age ribeye costs $98.00. Same cut that was $65.00 a few short months ago.
Coffee is way up as well. Produce. Really, everything. And as i said earlier, this is only the beginning.

US Farmers may not have any were to sell their crops for the next 3 years. After China stopped buying US soybeans in May they found new suppler’s elsewhere.
Trump might throw US farmers a bone but it won’t be enough to save their farms in the long run.
Cheers!

It's Trump's policy to blame everyone but himself. He'll likely chastise them for not being as smart as he is.

@SW-User Who is Trump blaming for the farm crisis? I have not heard him blame anyone. But you probably
listen to his every word, or, maybe,..... just maybe, you don't listen to him at all, but rather listen to other people tell
you what to think. Is that correct?
