Farmers get impatient with Trump's trade war: 'This can't go on'

Trump the big deal maker,that isn't


American farmers are running out of patience with President Donald Trump's trade war with China.

Farmers have long stood behind Trump's mission to get a better trade deal with Beijing that addresses long-standing issues with what they say are unfair trading practices.
But after weeks of optimistic statements by Trump and members of his administration about how trade talks were progressing, Trump abruptly escalated tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods last week and opened the door to even more -- prompting Beijing to hit back Monday by raising the tariff rate on $60 billion of US items.

The President of the United States owes farmers like myself some type of plan of action," John Wesley Boyd Jr., a soybean farmer in Baskerville, Virginia, told CNN's Brianna Keilar on Monday.
"Farmers were his base. They helped elect this president ... and now he's turning his back on America's farmers when we need him the most," he added.


On Friday, the leading wheat, soybean and corn grower industry groups put out a joint statement expressing their opposition to Trump's move to escalate tariffs. The three commodities represent about 171 million acre of farmland in the United States.

Ironic coming from a low IQ, lying leftist partisan hack who has never been right about Trump. You lazy losers just love making yourselves look like America hating morons don't you?

I'm one of the stupidest people on the planet.

Yes, you certainly are.

True. What I find amazing is that these liberal losers think that "Hate Trump" and "Hate America" is a winning platform.

Independent farmers sure as shit will, they won't make the same stupid mistake twice!

Trump's failed US-China trade talks have American soybean farmers drowning in tariffs
The picture for farmers is bleak. Even with a one-time $12 billion government dole to farmers, prompted back in the summer of 2018 by the administration’s political concerns over the tariffs’ impact in the heartland, net farm income dropped from $75 billion in 2017 to $63 billion in 2018. That's a far fall from a net farm income of $123 billion in 2013.

But don't worry, trump said he loves farmers.
