Fascist playbook 101:

Step 1: Remove something good with the claim that the good thing is actually the cause of all troubles

Step 2: Cause a colossal crisis as a result, putting the public in extreme risk

Step 3: Make a bullshit non-solution that you advertise as a solution (like a bribe).

Result: US famers will endlessly pledge their loyalty again because they're some of the dumbest motherfuckers in the country, and perhaps the planet.

the farmers know exactly what they're doing.

gone are the days of mom and pop family farms...in any farming town across the country whatever farmers that have survived now are multi-millionaires abusing this corrupt system to ratfuck public funds just like everyone else

these types don't vote republican because they're stupid, they vote republican because they know republicans are both predictable in their games and don't give a single fuck about enforcement/standards in return for their ratfucked funds like dems occasionally do.

It must be nice to be morally bankrupt.
