Farmers across the United States say they could face financial ruin – unless there is a huge taxpayer-funded bail out to compensate for losses generated by Donald Trump’s sweeping cuts and chaotic tariffs.
Need that sweet, sweet socalism. Last time Trump chipped in some few billion tax dollars to help out the “welfare queen” farmers, I assume they think he will again as they go cap in hand amd tug thier forelock to m’lord ?
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.
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.
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.
They should consider planting bootstraps so they can pull up lots of them during the harvest.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
Their whole fucking lives have been a 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
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
