Trump’s nominee for Ag Sec has 0 farm or Ag experience, is a christian right lawyer who worked for Steven Miller and AF Legal; and will help Trump by leading his self-destructive global trade war. Other than that, she’s fit for the job.

Trump really doesn't care, once all of his appointees make sure his grift is afloat, he's good. Trump will leave the White House a multi billionaire, but will blow it in short order as usual.
I think he can be talked down from most of them. But he'll get to pick the winners and losers of targeted tariffs, and the corruption will be off the charts.
It's better if he doesn't. I'm betting most countries are better prepared this time around and know how to hurt America in ways Trump couldn't imagine. There is no need for them to play nice with an asshole.
And he seems to forget that everything is linked. Treasury can't save the US from rising inflation or even a recession.
Those will happen with his tariffs and the destruction of education, health and the trade relationships with, soon to be former, allies.
Hack. Sounds like she's gonna take her cues from 1600 to start; the implementation of #USDA policy will come later. That #ClimateChange will likely take a back seat won't cotton well with farmers having to contend with #ExtremeWeather conditions alongside all the other issues they face.
Most "allied" countries went through this bullshit last time with Trump & his tariffs. This time they might play a little rougher.
I'm encouraging Canada to get creative & introduce an exit tariff rather than an entry tariff & focus strictly on energy, ie, natural gas, oil, electricity. Make it 20%
Probably not a bad thing long term. If Trump manages to destroy the export markets for grains once again the reaction of the MAGA farmers might be a tad more incendiary if the Dems prevent Trump from feeding them a bribe like last time. JUst block the legislation or take him to court everywhere
Kakistocracy. How do you stop someone who is dead set on destroying the government, economy and rule of law from the inside, FFS.
The US had been taken without putin firing a single shot and Dems seem asleep at the wheel.
Maybe she can team up with RFK Jr, crash around together like a pair of bulls in the china shop, maybe usher in a new age version of anti-science ag tech a la Lysenkoism?https://ethos.lps.library.cmu.edu/article/id/560/
It is pretty hilarious that all of these red county conservatives have joined a New York based real estate con man. Remember when pace specifically made fun of NYC to appeal to these same people?
The family farmers need all the help they can get having fight climate change, low prices, corporations, and the bank. They need a reliable, knowledgeable, experienced Secretary of Ag
Again, no guardrails this time.
Here's an interesting piece on the G20 and how America is no longer the leader of the free world..... But China wants to be? It's crazy to think China could ever overtake the US, but with Trump's win, they literally just did.

Export tariffs might be the answer
