    But is it enough to help the farmers forget about it come election time?

      You have voters who are so brainwashed that even if they fully believe that Trump screwed them will still vote for the next GOP candidate.

      At best, they will stay home and refuse to vote.

      They have a proud heritage of voting to get kicked in the nuts by Republicans and blaming Democrats for it. Please respect their idiotic decisions.

      But all a challenger has to do is remind them that Argentina got $80b from their “America First” president.

    I feel like farmers probably voted for Trump, so they should probably just live with the consequences.

    I’m sure the tariff refund. The check for like a month of healthcare. The DOGE refund. Will solve all of their issues.
