Yeah everyone in the thread is 'fuck them drumpf voters' but your food prices are going to be ridiculous next month so keep memeing
I don't think the average poster eats alfalfa.
That's a ridiculously naive take, do you think that because this article focuses on one specific crop that this is the only one the tariffs will affect?
Are you 5?
Where did you miss that the topic of the discussion was alfalfa?
No, the topic is 'MAGA farmer vafo's', just this particular facet is an alfalfa famrer
there is literally no requirement for the crop to be specific for this exact refrain to play ten thousand times
It's the sign of a small mind to be unable to address the bigger picture
Trump did that the first time. How could you not think, after him campaigning on tariffs, that he wouldn't do it again? This is just your own fault for voting for him...again.
You know how they overproduced purple hearts in anticipation of an invasion of mainland Japan that never happened? Imagine if that happened and yet they still fell short on numbers, except instead of casualties of war it's idiots getting fucked by Trump and instead of purple hearts it's "fell for it again" awards. That's where we're at.
No aid to those MAGAts without severe concessions on their part!
They should concede to use less oxygen from now on, at least 99% less.
Truly Make America Great Again.
That's the point. Trump wants you hopeless so you'll sell your land to his billionaire buddies.
Oh noes. Oh well! ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Moving on. Something about leopards and faces.
Good. Alfalfa is right up there with almonds as one of the most wasteful crops in existence.
Good thing Trump saved you from all the awful foreigners dragging America down tho right?
Have the day you voted for.
Because this time, the Con in charge will surely help you out. Surely this time. Surely.
Put on your clown noses, you dipshits. You will keep voting for them despite their obvious track record for being BAD FOR THE FUCKING ECONOMY.
Make sure to keep voting for the GOP farmer bob.
He will, because HitlerPig will bail him out.
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 agree with you 100%, but HitlerPig did bailouts the last time around, and it kept the famrers on his side, so he'll do it again. Nothing like paying people off to keep their loyalty. In fact, it worked so well last time, that he may be engineering the same scenario this time, just so he can pay them off again, and remind them of it before the next election.
Oh, who am I kidding? There won't be another election.
It already happened.
ECAP will help agricultural producers mitigate the impacts of increased input costs and falling commodity prices.
I'm calling it now, that aid package does not have Trump's approval, he will not sign off on it, or find a way to slap it down.
Schulz says he voted for President Donald Trump and believes in the goals of his tariff plan, to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. and expand exporter access to foreign markets.
That's a shame. ANYWAY . . .
Ehh.. I have little sympathy for these farmers who switched from growing food crops (thus contributing to the rise in food prices) to generally very water-intensive cash crops for export and kept getting subsidies meant to ensure a ready supply of food for the populace. This situation was plenty fucked long before Trump put his dick in it, it should not be surprising that he'd make it worse.
