Consistently voted against their own interests, going so far as to harp on about climate change like it's a force they had no part in enabling with their opposition to climate policy.
Heads up champ, financial bankruptcy is the least of your concerns but at least you won't starve to death like your kids will because you destroyed the planet with your uneducated bullshit.
Is it really voting against their own interests if they know the person they're voting in will just take tax dollars from cities and divert it to them to make them whole again?
These Kulaks know what they're doing. They just don't realize where it leads. They think the czar will always be there to protect them.
Famers love welfare when its for them.
thousand acre welfare queens
Biden was putting in programs to help them but they instead chose to vote for Trump who is bankrupting them so that his rich friends can buy up their properties for pennies on the dollar, if that.
I honestly don't think they will get help this time. JD Vance is invested in AcreTrader and what's a better way to buy thousand's of acres for pennies on the dollar than to bankrupt farmers? And at the end of the day, I really don't think they deserve a bailout.
I can see how some tariffs might help us compete with Mexico but are we really getting targeted by every other country or are we on the wrong side of this?
Waw, just... I can't even...
Compete with Mexico? What are you a tomato or Avocado grower. I was fine with selling my Wheat to Mexico. I don't see why orange moron should steal from my business to line his and Tim Apple's pockets.
Sure you're broke, tariffs are wrecking the global economy, climate change is going to kill at least 5 billion people, etc, etc, but it is is all worth it because that one trans kid in Pennsylorida can't play badminton and will probably commit suicide and you can proudly wear your kkk gear in public again.
Maybe doge will do something funny like cut existing farm subsidies.
They should consider planting bootstraps so they can pull up lots of them during the harvest.
So these dumb ducks voted for the exact thing that hurt them the last time...
You'd think that farmers of all people would understand the concept of reaping what you sow...
Lazy ass farmers just want bailouts. Fuck em.
Their whole fucking lives have been a bailout
I see a lot more Big Farm buying little farms and getting richer for it.
Some of your oligarchs are the largest farmland owners in the US.
my county has more than half a million people but only 250k live in the big city, many of the voters are rural farmers
they dominate the federal races because they are reliable and loud. they also always vote Republican
It's a sad thing but they need this pain in a big way. Their cash cow is out of Congress and her replacement has only one bill in his name... stupid fucking idiot wants to dissolve the NCAA and make it federal.
LOL
fuck you
Time for some signs dude.
GOVERNMENT BAILOUTS ARE SOCIALISM!!!!!
If they go ubder the good farms are going to be privatised
Bailout money, even if approved, might not get to farmers in time before they go bankrupt due to induced government inefficiency. That's icing on the shit cake that the Trump administration has baked.
It's part of the plan to buy up farms and land for cheap when farmers go bankrupt
I don't think it is part of the plan, just that Trump and Musk don't care.
Its certainly not their direct intention, but Trump just follows along with what his billionaire donors and advisors say, which is to destroy the economy and scoop up failing businesses at a cheap price to own more when the economy recovers. Its just how republicans operate. The tariffs are just an tool for destroying the economy and putting businesses under.
It does make you wonder if it at least a little bit by design. You don't need to pay bailouts if the person who would be receiving them is no longer able to do so, and you are still approving them outright.
They can sell their farm.
That's probably one of the goals. Small farms sell to either corporate farm companies, or billionaires.
TO WHO? ~~Aqua~~ Dustman????
if they dint learn from teh soybean tariffs, they wont learn anything here.
I assume they think he will again
not this year, maybe early next.. just in time to buy their votes at midterms.
Let's just print out a trillion food stamps for these welfare queens.
But you can't buy MAGA hats and gold Trump coins with food stamps!
Those you only get by giving blowies
1930 tariffs made dust bowl worse, because there was less planting from less exports.
Did you say, "buyout"?
I hope not, because you won't be getting one of those either.
No need to buy your farm from you when we can buy it from the auction cheaper.
They were warned.
It's all fuckin pointless. This is so good damn stupid.
No bailouts. No "too big to fail". It's time for consequences to fall where they may.
It's time for Find Out, not Bail Out.
Zero dollars for these people.
Why would Trump bother ? They'll still vote for him anyway. They're a miniscule proportion of the population anyway and politically irrelevant.
That didn't take long...
Watch them get it and then praise Trump and MAGA again.
Well that was fast.
So taxpayers need to pay more for the product itself AND taxes to subsidize the farmers who are impacted by the tariffs?
I'm starting to think these tariffs weren't such a good idea!
They are a great idea if you want to manipulate the stock market and do a little insider trading, until the rest of the world starts selling off your debt because they no longer hold your money in good faith anymore. <--we are here by the way.
Correct, if they get a bailout, it will come from tariff money. This could mean almost all the money made on this will just go back to them anyway, which makes you ask the question... whyyyy.
It's not like this is even hypothetical. It literally happened during his last term! 92% was returned to the farmers during that bailout.

This is FAKE NEWS because FARMERS Hate Socialism and would NEVER Ask for a SOCIALIST HANDOUT!
help out the “welfare queen” farmers,
Which almost all went to corpo farms and shit like Nunes' single cow farm.
Thats where most of the $10,000,000,000 from last month went too
