Trump/Bessent really got worked by the Argentina and China situation with the soybeans and now farmers need another bailout from a Trump administration.
FAFO I guess. Incredible times.

Trump says we're making so much money from the tariffs that he's going to use a little bit of it to bailout the farmers. Claims they'll need it until the tariffs really kick in and help them out.
What happened to paying down the national debt with all the tariff money we'll be drowning in?

Can builders get a bailout too? National debt is keeping mortgage rates too high combined with inflation. Maybe we can get Willie Nelson to throw a build-aid concert
Or I guess we can be one of the thousands of industries that just go out of business and don’t get bailouts when things don’t go our way.

And farmers are planting and harvesting all they want too. Just cause builders are building doesn’t mean they are making much money or that houses are selling.
I’m just making the point, farmers are constantly getting a bailout. At some point we need to reimagine this system if it’s so inefficient. And I’m not blaming farmers necessarily. The government is most likely the guilty party
Here’s another hypocrisy. What percentage of farmers voted Trump? 90 plus? What percentage hates China and would like to see them brought down several notches? 95 plus? So I’m sorry what you voted for actually came into being and they stopped buying soybeans as a result. Doesn’t mean they should get a bailout. Defeats the purpose in my mind

Yet soybeans are higher now than in Dec of 24 ... are you jumping on the only possible thing liberals can come up with ? I see it on social media . Democrats bashing farmers for not voting for Harris (pure nonsense)!

My FAFO reference wasn't towards farmers, it was towards the Trump administration, specifically Bessent, playing a high stakes game of chicken with China and getting worked over. Bessent and Lutnick are the two worst cabinet members through the first ~9 months and it isn't close, IMO.
I'm not happy farmers are in need of another bailout, first and foremost because I know many farmers. Secondly, I was hopeful this administration would actually have some fiscally conservative tendencies but its clear that isn't the case.
If you think the Argentina/China/farmer thing is Trump's only possible misstep, you aren't a conservative, you're a cheerleader of your favorite team.
