It is so funny how these tough guys suddenly get on their knees & beg for Trump's help when he does exactly what he said he was going to do

"PLEASE MR. TRUMP. WE LOVE YOU. HELP US. SOCIALISM?? NO, NO. WE'RE HUMBLE FARMERS. WE JUST NEED HELP"

You voted for this. Accept it

Emotional denial of reality is the cornerstone of Christian nationalism, and by extension, of the Trump infallibility cult. The rest is commentary

America’s farmers voted for that piece of fukking shyt Trump and now tariffs are going to put them out of business and you guessed it, they want a hand out. These are the true welfare queens.

They HAD an option - vote for Kamala.

They made their racist, poor-hating, leopards-eating-faces decisions.

The fukked around. They need to fully find out. Not get bailed out.

Gavin shutting water off to all the farms in California so farmers have no choice but to sell their farms. The land is then turned into solar and wonder farms. All at the altar of climate change. Spare us your sanctimonious bullshyt.

This is the world you piece of shyt socialists dream of but you can't stomach it because your hatred of the other is so deep you must rebel against anything the other socialists attempt.

@evil_dallas
They do have a choice other than mail them a check. They could let them go out of business and then an oligarch buys up the lands at a discount.

@AikenheadTom
Thank @DougLaMalfa for that, he's "one of us". Not. I know him, he's not. He takes more subsidies for his rice farm than 100 small farms. He's just using the system to subsidize himself. He needs to be voted out.

Happened during Trump's last term, too.

So they get to vote for whomever they feel most represents their beliefs and then expect a bail out

@VioletWyle
Farmers on the brink of bankruptcy are perfect marks for oligarch’s looking to buy up all the necessities of life for cheap. They’re already buying up all healthcare, housing, and grocery stores. Seems right they’d buy up the food stock too.

@tlow
I think it’s a concerted effort to get rid of small farmers so that private equity can swoop in and buy their assets cheaply, further monopolizing food. But hey, those three trans college athletes got out in their place.

@TaintedSaint2
Not our fault they have short memories. This happened during his first term with tariffs - and yet they voted for it to happen again. They KNEW this would happen. I guess they're learning actions have consequences.

Trump's not handing out any money he doesn't have to this go-round. There are no checks coming.

Agreed BIGLY plus those Farmers continue getting paid to Not Grow Crops (read again) by Laws that started in Great Depression and go on thru Today. My Tax Dollars and Yours SUBSIDIZE Farmers screwing me over every year. I must do Full Work for Full Pay. They don’t and I suffer

Agreeeee! Love my farmers but I’m sick of bailing them out when they vote against their own interest.

Same thing happened in Trump's first term. China stopped buying soybeans from the U.S. and Republicans voted subsidies to farmers. Lose lose.
Repeat.

They'll just have to sell their farms to corporate ag for pennies an acre.

But, there will be plenty of jobs for them, tending those farms for minimum wage.

Farming is subsidized on a regular basis. These people depend on the taxpayer to keep their farms going. Now, they want us to bail them out?

Ironically, one of the main drivers of migration is farm workers. Not only did they sign on to trump’s disastrous tariff policies, they signed onto exporting workers. I’ve zero sympathy. The only people who’ll profit are the big corporate farmers who’ll cleanup for ¢¢¢ on the $.

Most won't get handouts because JD Vance's company wants to buy up the farm land.

All part of the Long Con that is the MAGA movement

Chris King on some "I need to see the fruit of your love" to Trump.

 

[Wiseborn]

NEWPORT, Ark. (KATV) — Hundreds of struggling Arkansas farmers are pleading with the federal government to provide emergency funding amid a farm economy crisis.

Almost everything that could go wrong for Arkansas farmers went wrong this year, leaving many facing bankruptcy or even the closure of farms that have been passed down for generations.

A dismal global market and plunging commodity prices mean there’s little hope of breaking even, even as input costs soar because of inflation and tariffs—on top of bad weather earlier in the year.

This time last year, the rice price was about 40 percent higher than it is now. Inputs costs have gone up, fertilizer has gone up, commodity prices have gotten worse. So, after a horrible year last year where most farmers in Arkansas, Delta, lost money, this year is going to be worse,” said Derek Haigwood, a farmer from Independence and Jackson county.

Though President Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” provided a much-needed update to safety net subsidies for farmers, they won’t see those federal dollars until late next year. By then, some have projected that as many as one-fourth—or even one-third—of Arkansas farmers could face bankruptcy or be forced out of business.

“I’m a sixth-generation farmer from Newport, and we made the decision to go out this year, in the spring. So, my son will not be the seventh generation on our farm,” said one Newport farmer.

“In the last 14 months, five of my customers have committed suicide. That’s how serious this is,” said another Arkansas farmer who also works as an ag equipment financier.

On Tuesday, farmers gathered in Brookland to share their struggles with staffers from Arkansas’ congressional delegation, asking the state's representatives on Capitol Hill and the governor to convince the president to provide emergency aid to see them through to next year.

“We have to have ad hoc payments right now to make it through this year,” Haigwood said.

“If there’s no emergency funding this year, there will be one out of three farmers who will file bankruptcy,” said Chris King, a Woodruff County farmer.

Their cries for help did not appear to fall on deaf ears.

“We’re going to take your message. We’re going to get it back to D.C. and we’re going to do everything we can to get you the help you need,” said Gene Higginbotham, district director for Congressman Rick Crawford.

Until then, farmers have no one to turn to but God.

simple fertilizer prices too high go organic.

Seed prices high use non GMO seeds get a seed bank.

Machinery too high use Mex,,, oh wait.

Beautiful!!! This is what they wanted



Whenever I get a patient at the hospital and they got that Fox News channel on, I ask them "how's he doing? You happy?"




Every one of them hits me with the

"I think him and Elon are doing a GREAT Job!!



Long as my patients are happy.

 

[Lord Beasley]

no bailouts. fukk em

“I got a call from UPS they said they need some help; I got a call from Amazon they said they need some help

“

 

[Lord Beasley]

I mean, look at the fat fukk they elected as governor. She, her father, and the Republicans before her have shown they don't give a fukk about anything in that state except that NW corridor. That I-49 corridor looks like an entirely different world compared to the Delta portion of the state.

that whale asked trump for help with disaster aid. straight up denied. he basically told her "i helped you get elected....now do more"

 

[Adeptus Astartes]

 

[im not you]

squeeze american farmers out of business again

 

[Gains]

they were loving them some tariffs though

 

[SpikeLee Cumbersmith]

Reading the story, their congressman sent staffers. He really didn't want to face these people.

 

[Secure Da Bag]

Close their shyt down!

Eggs can cost as much as a 12 pack of Newports? Nah. I'm good.

But they did vote stupid though.
