I'm sorry, but if he was stupid & racist enough to vote for Trump again after Trump collectively lost the USA almost all soybean sales to China in his first term of misrule, I simply can't have any pity for this guy.
I hope he loses everything.
I want to say they actually interviewed him before the election too, I do remember seeing some soy bean farmer being interviewed, and he admitted on camera that the soy bean market didn't recover from the first set of Trump tariffs but was going to vote for Trump because reasons.
They deserve all of this.
It amazes me how these people are basically a stereotype. Especially for all their talk about individuality...
No way that dude can wipe himself. He’s gotta be using a toilet brush or something. I bet he can clear an auditorium with his dank, baleful farts.
2 superfats didn’t appreciate this comment.
How about you grow stuff Americans want, rather than what the govt will buy and give away overseas ?
You know - like Trump suggested.
This statement shows that you don't understand much about modern, mechanical farming.
It's a lot of expensive equipment specialized for picking & packing the crop you are harvesting. One of my vendor's combines are $500k to start & it only picks cotton.
This makes it very difficult & expensive to just change crops on a whim. Not to mention, you can only grow what your soil & climate will actually grow. Soybeans are wonderful for nitrogen fixation so it's pretty common to grow between other crops.
Thoughts and prayers.
That comment never fails to leave a smile on my face. Its so perfect and deadpan. Seen it a million times; hoping for a million more.
Is he in the running for one of the most ugly people in the world? Yuck. Who the fuck let him on TV?
Edit: Why am I being downvoted? I'm right.
