They should all start dumping mounds of shit on the steps of congress.
well fuck them
I don’t trust individual story headlines on topics that are not individual stories
So… Trump has scared off the significant numbers of … well just any kind of immigrant, legal or illegal… farm laborers…
Cancelled a bunch of farmer loan assistance programs…
… And started a tariff trade war that makes it essentially impossible for them to… import needed materiel, export harvests… or even be able to plan for a future scenario with any kind of new established, solid trade paradigm.
… Man we’re all gonna starve, fucking great.
EDIT: Do not know how this did not occur to me initially:
American holodomor, anyone?
Hmm, if farmers had actually listened to their friends and neighbors instead of giant signs bought by the rich, they would have realized that Republicans were using them for their votes, so they could eventually fuck them over and create an environment that would force them to sell their land to corporate farm entities and real estate firms, since you know, they bribed him more.
See, the thing is, they needed farmer votes, and stupid fucking farmers walked right into their trap. Now they don’t need farmers anymore, since the plan is to just steal every future election, and now farmers get to figure out what they’re really worth to Republicans.
But hey, they got rid of a bunch of immigrants (and legal US citizens) so that most have helped reduce costs for farmers right? And sure, it seems like all they really care about is helping billionaires, but that will somehow end up helping you… In some way… At some time, right? And they kill right to repair acts, so now you have no fucking way to repair your multi million dollar farm equipment unless you want to get screwed. Oh, and they have no problems selling the water rights out from underneath you… Not that it would be that useful, after they’ve rolled back EPA protections and the ground water becomes too contaminated to use.
No I totally get why farmers love trump. Farming is hard work, now you won’t have to do it anymore! All that land you own? It’s hard to maintain, so don’t worry, they’ll just take that from you too!
Hmm, if farmers had actually listened to any educated people
This really comes across like you think farmers are not educated people. Benefit of the doubt that this is not what you intended but you may want to re-write this.
Good point, change made
Getting what they voted for yet again.
My vendors & customers all have crops rotting in the field right now.
This is the start of the American Holodomir, thanks to the GOP & Putin.
He’s gonna bail them out and they wont learn their lesson. They need to taste the nasty medicine!
America’s most farming-dependent counties overwhelmingly backed President-elect Donald Fuckhead in this year’s election by an average of 77.7%. -source
LOL. Fuuuuuck the farmers. Let the ground go back to wilderness.

Don’t forget that if anyone from a small town goes and gets a formal education, comes back, and starts pointing out issues and ways to fix them, they get demonized and declared brainwashed by the LiBErAl eLiTe
Something like 80% of young people don’t move farther than 100 miles from home.
FYI, that costs money.

Exactly. It’s not like there isn’t decades of him being a racist, misogynistic asswipe. They chose to ignore that because he was going to hurt the people they don’t like.
Make sure to vote republican again you idiots. Just wait until trump takes all that welfare money you get.
If we replaced First past the post voting, Republicans could be free to vote outside the two party system without a spoiler effect. This would spur the creation of new political parties and encourage a competition on who can represent people the best.
Or not vote at all because of being a stupid fucking moron, and also genocide or some shit.
There are still some family owned farms. Can’t go back to feudalism without all the family farms going bankrupt and selling out to mega-farm conglomerate corporations.
The farmers should take a page from the European one’s book and block the roads. Or even better, drop tons and tons of manure on the White House lawn.
Better yet, Mar a Lago.
agriculture is facing another looming financial challenge with the recently announced SHIPS Act […] with Chinese-made vessels calling U.S. ports to be charged port fees of upwards of $1.5 million starting in the fall.
Ugh, I hate this reality so much … :(
Last ship from China is next month. Even if T**** drops the tariffs today, supply lines are already compromised for months.
Farmers showing us that working hard and working smart are clearly two different things. Shame they completely forgot the latter. TFI said “profits!” and those hard workers just assumed he meant theirs. The morons obviously didn’t learn fuckall from his first regime.
