    1. Yep. $16 billion in taxpayer dollars to bail out the farmers, while Trump cuts $60 million from Planned Parenthood, and chops Medicare, Medicade and the EPA to the bone. One trillion $ in domestic cuts over the next 10 years, while farmers, Big Business and the military live high on the hog. And he calls Bernie a ‘socialist.’ 🙂

  1. You voted for this foolish Cheetos and hence we welcome your return to humanity. But it doesn’t excuse your poor judgment.

    1. IDC EID :::: little advice change up your approach at this point!!! Fake!!! The thief is never smarter than the supreme!!! Boss up!!!

  2. Soybeans supply chain is going to Russia now. Trump gave our nation’s soybean supply chain to Russia. worth at least 15 billion a year. No wounder Trump does not need a Pay check.

  3. For people (farmers) who got riled up by Republicans about socialism now don’t mind that same socialism!

    1. @Jeremy Backup 12 billion to the farmer’s? Whats wrong with that? we’ve given 350 billion to China and 10 billion to the EU and we can’t give our farmers help?

      By the way, the Treasury has brought in 63 billion – thanks to trump tariffs.

      Upward trend? Really? So why was Fake News and members of congress telling people Trump will lead us into financial Armageddon? How about that Noble Peace Prize loser in economics Paul Klugman? He was spot on right?

      The market has risen 29% since Trump. I just got a 1-year CD with a 2.4% interest rate. Been killing the market with the indexes. You should try it – easy money.

      Also, what happened to Trump is going to get us into World War 3? I liked that one

    2. @Saltponds239 Because they shouldn’t need your handouts in the first place. The point was to improve the economy not have to bail them out.

    3. @Noel Faber You’re absolutely right, we are so afraid of socialism we won’t admit that it’s public highways, public education, public utilities, public libraries, fire/police departments, community rec centers, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, public parks (including national and state), public radio, public television, FDIC, CDC, FEMA, etc. The policies of the original New Deal enacted during FDR’s term was one of the largest collection of socialist policies in history.

    1. @Russian Métropolitan Russia has a gigantic agricultural market so they will be more than able to feel 1.3 billion Chinese – LOL.

    2. @Saltponds239
      you didn’t “give ” them anything
      unable or unwilling to learn is the very definition of stupid

  4. Makes you wonder how many agricultural companies are helping the Amazon to burn so they can put up farms. They have been deliberately burning the Amazon to force land being opened up to farming and ranching for years. It also makes it that much harder for the indigenous people to lay claim to a forest that is no longer there.

    1. @Saltponds239 You are prob right, and that will prove what I have said all along; ‘Americans are the most ignorant people on earth – by far’.
      The laughingstock of the world. Even school children laugh at Trump where I come from.

    2. @Morten Grue Its nice kids are being taught economics. Hopefully, kids will be shown giving billions away and getting nothing in return is a formula for disaster.

  5. the guy who complains about the price being below the cost of production should read “the art of the deal”

  6. God bless our farmers who were already having a hard time before Trumpterd took his imaginary office…

  7. A wise man talking, but maybe too late. Customers are lost to other international suppliers. The next US president(s) and team will have a tough job to amend.

    1. @dan mac Let me ask you, if we are already paying China 350 billion dollars a year, whose BEEN paying for that? And/or 7 Trillion since Bill Clinton.

    2. He’s only handed out $12 billion so far, which doesn’t come close to covering what they’ve lost so far. Over the past 2 years, the amount of farms and farmers filing bankruptcy has tripled. There will be farmers that vote party over country, but I think enough have been personally hurt by Trump, that they will side with America in 2020 and not vote for Trump.

    3. @Jeremy Backup
      i’m going to suggest that it wont be a matter of siding with Donnie dementia
      but rather doing whats best for themselves
      Donnie dementia has cost them markets that took decades to build up
      and will take even more decades to get back, if they ever do
      if Donnie dementia had planned for the big corporations to completely take over the farming industry, he couldn’t have picked a better way
      bankrupt the little guy so as the big corp pays cents on the dollar for their lands, and machinery
      the big corp’s have enough cash to wait it out

    1. Augie V i doubt it. Farmers have it the best. They inherit millions of dollars in land. And just have to plant a seed.

    1. @Patrick Hag Idiotic? Since Bill Clinton, we have given away nearly 7 Trillion dollars to China. Idiotic? I agree.

    1. My thoughts exactly! I found it very impressive how Mr Gibbs explained the issues involved in a clear and lucid manner.
      MsG

  8. Voted for trump. Active in the republi con party. Well. I guess you got what you wanted, right Gibbs? How’s that working for you? Are you tired of ‘winning’ yet?
