It’s ok. They’ll still vote for Him lol because it’s worth it to lose generational farms to “own the libs” while protecting pedos 😂

You can own the libs, or you can own your farm. Not both

He could say "I fucked those girls" a half a dozen times, with a huge shit eating grin on camera and very little would change on that side of the aisle.

It's vague enough they will say it's a joke, or it's fake, or out of context or he meant adult women or that "it's okay because they weren't 5" and things will continue on their current trajectory. Everyone sane will know exactly what he means.

My dad is a farmer and has Trump's name plastered all over the place at his farm. I can't explain it. My dad is also a homophobe and a racist who has not been out of his rural Iowa county in years. Oh, he also hates public "SCREWL", even though my wife is a teacher. Needless to say we don't visit him often.

u/uwearclownshoes 44m ago

I feel this. My dad lives in a low pop redzone, where they all watch the same channel and regurgitate the same drivel to each other ad nauseum. I have to gear up for visits. It’s a bitch.

But you DO visit him?….

u/originalmosh 4h ago

He is 20-30 minutes away, if I am over there and see him outside I will stop and say hi, never stay longer than 5-10 minutes. I don't give him time to go on a rant about Biden or whatever he is mad about that day. We don't make special trips to vist though, and if I don't see him outside we don't stop.

Wake me if farmers criticize Trump for literally anything else, other than hurting their pocket books.

Otherwise, this is just self interest.

Wait, what? I meant I voted for those policies only if it screws the other guy! The guy they voted for does exactly what he says he’ll do then everyone is shocked.

I mean the guy bankrupted just about everything he touched, may as well let him have a crack at America!

They will vote him and (R) no matter what. He could walk into their house, kick them out and then tell them it's to stop the libtards doing the same thing and they will go "ahhhh, makes sense"

Wait that's what happening now. Crash the farms for cheap land

Agronomist here. You know how many times I have heard them hate on city slickers, suits, men that have no word, and talk about business! To then, see them bend backwards and vote for a New York City slicker, with a suit that has no word and had bank rupted 6 business. They didn't vote for policies as he didn't had any. It was all about making other people miserable. Well, what did they expect? Yeah, f...em!

Unfortunately for farmers, their culture is now rooted (no pun) in a belief that socialism is bad, but if they fail, the government will bail them out, and this isn’t socialism.

He’ll bail them out. He did it about 3 times in his first term, and farmers were suddenly bragging about the windfall. They elected him for more of our money this time around, and he’s likely to give it to them to buy his way back into their good graces.

And they'll vote red down ballot. And Trump in 2028 if his criminality is allowed to persist. For them, it's more about hurting others than helping themselves.

I understand that this is their lively hood, but they actively voted to allow a racist and pedo to become president again.

That can't be forgiven or forgotten. The left, independents and middle republicans told them, yelled it even, that he was going to do exactly what he is doing right now, and they still voted for him. You reap what you sow.

So now they are upset that he is shafting them, I wish hindsight for these poor fools was 20/20. They will still vote for him.

I went to the Caledonia County Fair in Vermont this past Saturday. Spent about six hours there.

This is a 4-H crowd, 90% of them. Livestock with ribbons tacked to stables. Quilt competitions. There's a tractor pull.

If you threw a gyro into any crowd you'd have better than even odds of hitting someone with a "DON'T TREAD ON ME" or “WE THE PEOPLE ARE PISSED” t-shirt.

Roughly 10,000 people attended.

I didn't see Trump's name once.

Not a single goddamn t-shirt.

Not a single goddamn hat.

Nothing.

At all.

All part of the plan for Trump and his buddies to pick up a shit-load of farms at dirt-cheap prices…👍

u/panda3271 4h ago

They are hoping or banking on Trump bailing them out. Since farmers are necessary to survive and the government has bailed them out before for decades. Democrats and republicans. They expect the same now. But attempt is different. As he has shown. He will go over seas and get our food needs from there. He can make deals that make him a ton of money and still feed the peasants here in America. He cannot make those deals with American farmers. 🤷🏼‍♂️. They are going to learn this the hard way.

I work directly with farmers in the Midwest, have for 40 years. This post and virtually all that it is claiming is absolutely FALSE information and completely untrue. Farmers are on pace to have a very financially healthy year with the biggest impediment being fertilizer prices. Commodities are at healthy levels and yields are projected to be above average this fall. Welcome to another episode of fake Democratic News. I think that is all they have at this point.
