I wonder how these farmers feel about handouts. Maybe Donnie can send them the bootstraps they all like to yammer about.

They won’t care, and they’ll happily take a handout, and they’ll continue to unironically complain about “welfare queens” and other asinine and manufactured arguments against anything even remotely socialistic.

Socialism is when the government helps people with a different skin color than me.

Socialism to them just means "I don't like it and you shouldn't either."

Look at these welfare queens at it again with their hands out and mooching sacks wide open.

A strange sort of prostitution. Everyone gets fucked, but only a certain few get paid.

This sounds familiar somehow, like we've been here before. Wonder why that is?

What do you mean we’ve been here before? It’s brand new.

So efficient.

Just like last time, this will happen too late for many family farms to avoid having to sell, and Big Ag companies will step in, but up that land for cheap AND get those government handouts.

Bankruptcies for farmers still shot up over 20% last trade war, so even if he does eventually bail them out, everytime this happens 1 in 5 of them lose their farm... eventually none will be left and Blackrock will own all the farmland.
