After wrecking soy farmers' international markets, Trump plans to give soy farmers billions in taxpayer funded government handouts

This is what Trump's stupid tariffs have done to soybean farmers and other farmers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/worl...new-flashpoint-the-humble-soybean/ar-AA1NQIpZ
Trump will give them money. How does that make sense. They are businessmen doing a job. Now they will get money from the government, instead of selling their products. What do they do with all the product? Do they bother planting next year?

It just goes to prove the Dementia Don thrives on creating chaos, not doing what is best for the nation. He does stuff like this because he has the power to do so and feels like doing it.

Well HE is an outright LIAR when he says I have EVER pushed soybeans on anyone because I never have EVER in my whole life and I don't think I ever will.

But if he's insane and truly believes it, then, yes, his facts are wrong, but a liar knows they are lying. I strongly doubt Fredo is sane enough to know the difference between right and wrong.

Trump making plans to send billions in cash bailouts to farmers with taxpayer money​

The Trump administration is planning to roll out the first tranche of bailout payments for farmers in the coming weeks using likely billions of dollars in funding from an internal USDA account, according to three people with direct knowledge of the matter.

But it won’t be enough: USDA’s Commodity Credit Corporation fund — which President Donald Trump previously tapped to provide $28 billion in farm aid during his first-term trade war with China — has just $4 billion left in the account. Trump officials, including those at the Treasury Department, are looking at how to tap tariff receipts or other funding to supplement the payments without triggering a messy fight in Congress.

The timing of the actual aid rollout is also tricky given that it’s unlikely to happen or even be possible during the ongoing government shutdown that’s shuttered vast swaths of the Agriculture Department.

Trump officials are still working on estimates of how big the first tranche of aid will be, according to the three people, who were granted anonymity to share private details. But the president has been posting his promises to aid American soybean farmers on social media in recent days.

Hill Republicans have been pushing Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and other Trump officials for weeks to do something to aid farmers reeling from high input costs and the president’s tariffs, which have cut off American soybean farmers’ key markets in China as Beijing retaliates.

Trump has said he would use tariff revenue to provide cash bailouts to farmers, but Congress would likely need to vote to authorize such a move, triggering a major fight between Republicans and Democrats amid already dire government spending conversations.

They won't, or can't. They aren't very bright.

What counts is the majority of voters in the States and Congress.

Don't forget wheat, corn. and sorghum. He killed those markets as well.

And don't even get me started on beef...

And that is sad,
I wonder if they will ever wake up and see just what Trump is doing not only to them but to the US consumer and the US economy.

No they will not. They don't view him as the carnival barker that he is. They believe that he is a man of God, and that he is also a successful businessman.

They believe that the tariffs will eventually improve their bottom line. They have 'faith' that it will take time, but it will happen.

I'm sure a good number of them also share his hatred of 'others'.
