I have recently read a number of stories about soybean farmers who are hurting bigly as a result of Trump’s mass deportations and Chinese tariff retaliation. What conclusions should we draw from that?
First, that the farmers should have known this was coming, but they voted for Trump anyway, so they aren’t entitled to much sympathy. Second, that Trump will make sure they are receiving bailout payments from the proceeds of his tariffs in the near future. Don’t despair, great American farmers; giant welfare checks backed by our tariff payments and signed by your beloved president will be on the way shortly.
