Don’t worry, Trump will use the tariffs (aka a tax on every US consumer) to pay the farmers so that everyone will be screwed! Yay!
@Pat Doyle why buy a soccer ball made by a Chinese child worker for $1? Why not buy a soccer ball made in America by a imagrent for $3 and help him by having a job not needing to depend on handouts and the $3 that’s made also go’s back into the American economy.
@Pat Doyle see the fact is that China needs the west way more than we need China, what Trump is doing is basically letting China know that he knows that.
@Pat Doyle give a man a fish and he’ll eat for a day, give a man a cheap Chinese fishing rod and he’ll stave to death because first cast the shitty thing breaks.
@Don ta you as well.
NOT A FINANCIAL GENIUS! THAT WE KNOW FOR SURE!
Trump is looking to buy your farmland on the cheap….and it will be soon.
@fran bran Fran, you don’t know what you’re talking about and your comments regarding Mr. Kuylen and Don Lemon display your own lack of character.
@Terrance Hall Triggered much lol
@C. Michigander Well I, am not the one facing a sexual assault charge am I
Sucking up to Lemon might get you a thumbs up.oops wrong choice of words.
@fran bran idiot much?
@fran bran Oooh. Burn……….. Not.
You know that China denies calling to make a deal with Trump, right? So far, Trump is the only one saying they have done that. And you know how honest Trump is. Right?
As for farming, I doubt that you actually know anything about it. No REAL farmer would have ever made the comment you made about Mr. Kuylen.
American agribusiness and Chinese investors will buy out the American farmers.
@Robert Clawson He didn’t sign anything. He says he made a deal, comes out and crows about it, then you find out there was no deal and the supposed second party has no idea what he’s talking about and say there was no deal. And the figure the liar came up with was $7M. That’s not “buying up all your corn”, that barely covers 1/5 of the cost of a golfing trip. And the Japanese would NOT want your beef.
No signed deal, only more lies and it’s still amazing anybody believes a fucking word out of that pathological liar.
That’s what they want to do bankrupt them and buy them out pennies on the dollar
..at pennies on the dollar. Farmers are royally screwed.
Good. As it should be. Only the strong survive. 🙂
@Robert Clawson The Japan deal is a total lie by Trump who is destroying the small farmers.
Welfare for the farmers. Cut food stamps. 🍊🍊🍊logic
Agent Orange most farmers voted for trump so let them rot.
Irony in all this is; these schmuck farmers vote republicans and then always lose their farms because of it. Who comes bailing out these idiot farmers? Liberals! Celebrities! All the things farmers hate. These liberal celebrities put on Farm Aid, just so these ingrate farmers can spit in these celebrity faces after the concert is over.
Yeah you remember what Reagan did to farmers. Banks were taking farms left and right. Hell, John Cougar Mellencamp even turned it into a goddam song.
@Real Christian. Very Christian of you 🤣🤣🤣
@Terry Murray When world and humanity crisis are on the line, no religion can save us.
Terry Murray dumbass deplorables keep voting against their own interest.
What is Trump doing with the money from import duties? Any transparency?
trump said “were making millions and millions”…im expecting my check any day now…i figure the first check should be about 5000 dollars
They have paid out billions to farmers already but the money is coming from american importers not China. There was in the first quarter not enough money to have anything left over after paying the farmers.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people to vote against their own self interests
Mrs.Brownsugar M it’s that what you’re into🍆
“It’s easier to fool somebody than it is to convince them they’ve been fooled”
@Mr. Z I didn’t hear you call a lier
Climate change Preppers on Facebook yess Lmaoo! The poorest state is Kentucky and they would have benefited most with a democratic president
It’s sad to think how many times Trump has screwed up on something and people still keep him in office
theboss5751 stop watching cnn
Are you stupid or what ….
Refusing to shake the end of the US PRESIDENT
No prime minister or president is doing that
By that standard, you should have impeached Obama. Oh wait, black.
@theboss5751 his wife wont touch him? Stop with your extreme exaggerating
@Ian Webb get real the Mexicans coming over the boarder are dumb asf. All they can do it mow lawns and don’t even seem to be able to learn English.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump ended a speech or statement with “Hail Hydra”.
LMAO! Ha ha haaaaa Hail Hydra Classic!
Making fun and jokes about nazis huh?? Over here in the Netherlands (at that time occupied by Nazi Germany) that’s considered not done. Nobody jokes about a world war which costs lives of millions.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you stole change from your mommies purse so you can pay a hooker to take your virginity.
So tell me again how Trump is making America great again?
@Tom Acosta ; Thank you Eric T.
@Tom Acosta lol that’s what the smart “pundits” were saying in 2007 and 2008, and then what happened? Larry Kudlow had PIE IN HIS FACE; BAM RECESSION, and then Franny and May were bailed out. This time everyone is going to see the major consequences of providing socialism to the RICH BANKS with what? Another recession. How about the current president STOP providing millions to BIG OIL, BIG BANKS, and other FAILURES. He was SUPPOSED to clear out those swamp monsters! And he didn’t.
@Gustavo hernandez The Rio Grande is being built as we speak. Oh you don’t believe the BBC? Many mile of fence has been replaced with a big beautiful wall. I can’t wait for trump to reveal how much is done before the election. Looks like the wall is closing in on democrats.
@BurghMan This is the land if opportunity. Not the land of handouts. Buckle up kiddo. Filling out social service firms is not a job description.
@Janet_Doe The difference my friend is Clinton built his economy on wall street loan sharks. You do realize the only thing the Clinton foundation has done for inner cities is get favorable loans. Trumps economy is built on jobs. Not credit cards and a fake housing market.. You are so clueless. Get a grip or go back to school.
Trump has started a recession
Trump is an elite rich boy with a silver in his mouth and he does not care about you
@Jason G That’s how farming works, you farm for the people in your own country any farmer that grows a crop and depends on selling it to China is stupid 🤣
@Debra Delgado you sound crazy 🤪 🤪 you need a free ticket back to your own country before you hurt someone.
Do you actually know what a recession is??
“Tariff relief” = expanding the National Debt. God help us.
I wonder where all that money comes from…
In order for a republican candidate to run for election there’s three things he can’t talk about anymore. Balance budget. Deficit. Free trade.
Dread The Griefer the question is where does the money go? How much taken in? Which is of course paid by the U.S Consumer. How much paid out to subsidize farmers? How much lost by farmers? I understand there is a 45% increase in family farm bankruptcies. Farmers also have a high rate of suicide. How does America eat when it has no farmers, because they can’t make money, and there is no one to harvest many of the fruits and vegetables. Thanks gop, rump, and his Ill-informed voters. Are we still winning? Are we great again yet? Rump for prison 2020. Lock him up, loch him up…
@C J Don’t worry about it, corporations will just buy up all the land and set up some automated farming machines.
Oh my gosh Trump said the farmers love him hmmm I should have known! I’m so sorry!
He also said he has lost billions being president. Should have known he meant Americans lost billions(or will it be trillions).
My 401K has lost more than $20,000 since Trump started his needless trade war with China. Some businessman…Donald Trump kills everything he touches.
@Jason G BOT
I lost also
Renegadeproject …Jason G a troll.do not respond
I would say you need someone different taking care of your money bud. I have only made money. Not much mind you, but I still made money.
You should sale your 401 and let it just sit there. If you don’t. You keep losing. I worked for countrywide home loans and lost big. I didn’t know this but I do no. Sale and set it in a Roth accumulator where it won’t get hit
Trump is a skilled conman and he is conning the Americans into poverty..
That’s funny, I’m doing fine.
Not feeling poor here are you?
The Americans Should not even feel no poverty. It could be do to the people’s bad buying habits which makes them lose money instead of saving and investing it.
@Christopher car troll
@RFI-Crypto Lab troll
LOL! Keep voting for the GOP! They are making russia great!
American farmers literally bet the farm on Trump, looks like that’s a bet they’re going to lose.
@Jason G Any one can post a bunch of BS .
List the name of the farm and a address of this farm.
You are so proud of it and I’m sure trump would love to use your success as a example of what a great president he is.
Jason G you never answered the question of the specs of the barn. And if it’s so great then what’s the name of it?
HE IS A CON ARTIST HE SERVES ONLY HIMSELF!
Harvey Lawrence Here it is:
The barn I believe is over 100,000 square feet. Concrete floor, temperature controlled, 24/7 rotary robotic milking system, one robot to feed the calves and one to feed the cows and There is a computerized control room with monitors that control everything, over 600 huge stalls, 20,000 square foot hay loft etc etc
This is hilarious. These farmers voted for Trump despite his ongoing china rhetoric during his 2016 campaign. You can’t expect nations of color to want to trade with you when you elect a nazi. No pity for self inflicted wounds.
Stumps managed to turn hard working people into welfare recipients. Seriously, you can NOT be surprised!
Big giants pay no taxes, middle class paying the price.
They sure hate welfare for the poor till it comes tp them needing it, then it’s all good.
@Vendicar Kahn.. this universe is control by mother nature,. i dont think she can be beaten by us,.,.. But we are really giving her a beaten😩
“If they give it to rich people they call it a _subsidy,_ but if they give it to poor people they call it a _hand-out.”_ – Martin Luther King, Jr.
@You Know EXACTLY!!
Typical stuff from farmers.
@Vendicar Kahn Agreed.
Do we really need any more proof that traitor Trump has no clue how to run a country?
The guy couldn’t rum a casino
Absolutely no more proof..
