Related: About this forum'Were Screwed' Beleaguered Farmers Warn That Trump's Bailouts Wont Save Them - The Logical Leftist
In this compelling video, we explore the fallout from President Trump's tariffs on American farmers, particularly those in the soybean industry. Many farmers who once supported him are now facing severe financial strain as their largest export market, China, has gone silent.
We break down the President's recent proposal to use tariff funds for farmer subsidies and why this approach may not be enough. As Caleb Ragland, President of the American Soybean Association, highlights, without a market to sell to, even the most generous bailouts won't save the day.
With Brazil and Argentina stepping in to take over the soybean market, we discuss the long-term implications for U.S. agriculture and what farmers really need to recover. Join us for an in-depth look at the challenges ahead and the urgent need for sustainable solutions.

These lazy farmer welfare queens sitting around in their shiny new cadillacs pickup trucks with duel-Trump flags flying from the tailgate, guzzling beers with our tax/welfare money, are complaining. Of all the nerve. Get a fucking job you lazy bastards. GFY.

No pity party for you farmers who voted for Dirty Donald. A lesson to be learned: voting has consciences, look at the big picture.
