President Trump's administration is weighing a new round of emergency aid to farmers, who are likely to be caught in the middle of sweeping tariffs if America's trading partners retaliate.

The tarrifs will be implemented, the car company and any other company affected will need a bail out, and they'll use that need to pass a 4 trillion dollar borrowing and spending package, to bail out said companies.
Your oppression is their profession.
If tariffs are so damn beneficial why must Trump once again bail out farmers? Farmers are victims of Trump. Taxpayers are too. Just like first tRump administration. A ship of fools.
I'm saying - fuck the farmers. They helped put this prick in office and they should shoulder the blame like those of us who are being destroyed by trump. Sorry, but I'm especially pissed off today.
Because it worked so well the last time when he put small farms out of business, forced farmers to go bankrupt and, in some cases, commit suicide. Then they voted for him again, so...fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
The point is to put the small farmers out of business so the large corporate farms can buy them up and have bigger profits to donate to these filthy, repugnant republicans.
Right - that is the Republican mantra. Break it and let the Democrats fix everything in their next term. How do we get rid of these far right repulsive republicans once and for all and send musk with them.
So, tariffs are a tax on the consumer. And now our taxes are being used to bail out an industry that tariffs are damaging. A double negative: That makes perfect sense. Trumponomics 101.
Just like in his first term. The rich get richer... and Elon buys the Wisconsin election for Supreme Court with millions of dollars to put a quasi criminal on the court.
from a distance : Emergency aid = money to farmers instead of money to USAID so USAID could buy and distribute US-agricultural products and distribute those products to countries in need ?
We need to stand together, rural and cities and all in between. Its an honorable life to grow food for the people, yet the gov't has consistently mistreated rural areas. Farmers need the support of the masses to be free from this foul deal. We need a fair system to thrive in.
Trump paid off farmers in 1st administration. Unfortunately the contracts and good will established for years was destroyed, once china or India fills the void, the business is lost.
Destroying our economy intentionally is treasonous!
That emergency aid is of course coming out of the tarrfiff purse. Meaning less slush funds to counter the lower taxes being collected after the carnage at the IRS.
Only USA. You see what France did? LA Penn is guilty and forbidden from running for office for 5 years. (That's probably a death sentence for her political career) Here trump is convicted on 34 felony counts and we reelect the bastard because of the price of eggs. Go figure - I sure can't.
Nonsense. The tariffs are a tax cut for Americans. Why in the world would they need emergency aid? Isn't that socialism? I'm also shocked that nobody at all predicted this exact situation would happen.
This is bullshit. We're all caught in the middle, not just farmers. Protecting this voter base is pure corruption. If tariffs are so good, why the need to bail out anyone?

Well, of course, trump doesn't want to anger his base. Screw the poor and middle class but make sure those rich farmers are taken care of with welfare for the rich.
As they should. Farmers provide food for this country and many others. They work long, hard hours and should be supported by our government which are the idiots who put the tariffs in place.
Last time Trump was president, it was $billions upon $billions, because China stopped buying midwestern soybeans due to his trade war. Likely $billions and $billions again. Bet you Musk and the Dogeys ain't gonna put that in their spreadsheet of "savings."
Truly struggling farmers or those with oddly corporate sounding names and middle of a city P.O. boxes that often cause Republicans to suddenly love them subsidies?
Great, take money from child cancer, veterans, and old people to give it to farmers who voted for it to happen in the 1st place. Wait till they start crying about no one to pick their crops. Karma is a bitch. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sadly this should push us into a recession unless Trump reversed course! I believe he is feeding information and helping his trader buddies sell short and buy at the right times. I am sure he gets a cut. The most corrupt administration in history!!
Its a repeat of the ill-advised trade war he started with China his first term. Bragged about taking money in from China in on tariffs, falsely claiming it was paid by China, and then had to pay American farmers that were hurt by his policies.
Inflation rose abruptly during Jimmy Carter’s presidency, mainly due to the Arab oil crisis. Trump is now set to have rising inflation and stagflation, mainly due to his own tariff obsession. The difference is that Trump counters with a run at a third term?
Djt told them to "have fun" producing only for the USA. They voted for him and now they want/need a fucking handout/bailout yet again. We've seen how this plays out.
This is really no different than Biden paying chip makers billions to produce chips domestically...with the taxpayer making up the losses, while the corporation keeps the profits.
Or the US military complex charging whatever it wants to keep their companies stocks performing well.

So it’s not just banks and bankers who get bail outs ?
Who in their right mind put a convicted felon in The White House.
Then paint himself as the great orange savior.
And the MAGA machine will help him sell it

We could skip the entire tariff thing?
Why not everyone else hurt by his administration?
For example, I'd like the HHS, USAID, USPS, VA, and Social Security fully funded. Why not those?
That's bunko.
I am opposed to any special carve outs for farmers. They voted for the cheeto, they get what they deserve.
Make it make sense.

The Trump administration is weighing giving farmers more taxpayers' money because of the damage done by the Trump tariffs.
Always make sure you make the vulva wet before you insert the cock.
The dry vulva shall drain all your energy!
Now Trump wants to buy farmer’s votes!
Not only will food be more expensive, now Trump wants to spend billions to subsidize farmers!

America deserves to be crushed for electing djt.
