So true Aunty Em. So true:

W/o Congress approval or, in fact any specific reason, Trump promised a B foreign bailout that he admits wouldn't primarily serve American interests, ignores his “America First” motto, & tests the patience of US farmers who have yet to receive their own relief from Trump’s trade war. #ProudBlue

3. Maybe this will not be popular here, but didn't the majority of farmers vote for trump?

They got what they voted for. During trump's 1st term he did the same to them, the only difference is that he (we, the tax payers) bailed them out with $20 billion of our hard earned money, and that is again what the farmers wanted, they wanted that huge bail out, which now, to their disappointment, doesn't seem to be coming. I understand, we are all going to suffer from high prices, but...farmers are ripping the fruit of their vote.

no longer need the farmer's votes, rural americas votes, or any of his MAGAot voter's votes for that matter.
Obviously, Musk found some way to corrupt the Vote "compilers" at the state level.......

Trump's 20 Billion gift to Argentina is now up to 40 Billion and mostly, it helps bail out a U.S. Republican Zillionaire Donor's investments.....

I fear.....We Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, and 2025, Steve Miller, and the Republican Party just will seriously accelerate it from here on in.......
They are hell bent on obliterating the lower 99% and further enriching the top 1%.

Shades of the Grapes Of Wrath,.....coming up................

And that was a fraction of voting age citizens.

Percentage T 49.8% (R) KH 48.3% (D)

So their claims of "landslide" or even Majority are both false.

5. First, of course he's helping Argentina, where did the Nazi's flee too?

Second, he lost a CASINO, filed numerous bankruptcies, folded how many businesses and is on his 3rd marriage. What part of this convinced his voter's to say 'yes, that's the guy I want in charge of my Country? In their eyes he is a success. He has run our Country like it's one of his businesses.

Those billionaires who invested in pesos under Milieu. The bailout out by Trump will keep the value of the peso up enough for those guys to cash out quickly without losing a bundle.

Farmers says Trump - fuck them - He takes care of his billionaire buddies.

Current U.S. Government is suffering from necrotizing facistitis. Judicial amputation may be necessary.
