China is retaliating with an 84% total tariff. RIP U.S. soybean farmers!

Congress will bail farmers out🤬. But as for screwing the rest of us via our 401k, social security, Medicare, Medicaid and former Fed help — FEMA, firefighters, SNAP, and much more — we’re on our own w/o compensation.
He’ll bail them out. Which really begs the question… wtf is this all for? Seems rather wasteful and inefficient.
Rest in piss, farmers that voted 80% in favour of Trump. You asked for it you got it. Fucking idiots.
Yep
Trump will bail them out. With our money. Again.
260,000 poor white southerners were shot to death while fighting to protect rich white plantation owners from having to give up their slaves. Stupid is as stupid does. And these farmers, vets and active military will continue to vote for people who actually don’t regard them at all.
In the first Trump presidency, he slapped tariffs on Chinese steel, and they bought their corn and soybeans elsewhere. The Trump administration had to bail out American farmers to the tune of 23 billion dollars. He's definitely a great buisnessman.
They will likely buy most of aus beef so the US will be able to use the soy for burgers. Winning!
The economics of Idiocracy. Resist the Racist Regime. Harriet Tubman, Grandma Moses. President 47 tried to erase her from the National Park Registry. This song is a tribute to her and an affront to him. youtu.be/m6cAe2jF2pg?...
Farmers are among the highest government hand out recepients
PROJECT 2025 framers are behind TRUMP, he's following all the objectives they have proposed. Why is NO one calling them out so they can be seen by every American. We're being attacked by billionaires behind the scenes. THEOCRACY is the goal, at any price. They picked him for the con job.
I’m sure he will throw a bit of money, to them. They will happily keep cheering him on.
I live in a small rural community. Every farmer I know supported Trump, even though many farmers went broke in Trump’s first term and Trump had to give them our tax dollars to bail them out.
Once enough farmers go bankrupt, Trump will announce the tax cuts for the wealthy. The ones that don't spend it on the discounted stock prices and buybacks will spend it on farmlands. No part of this tariff strategy benefits average Americans. It's all just another grift, but on a massive scale.
Yup.
Most of the farmers I know voted for Trump thinking they’ll get rich and be paid off like they were during his last term when he screwed up with the tariffs
There's already discussions in the Trump Administration to provide aid to farmers. If your policies or tactics require bailing out an entire sector a second time, maybe your approach is wrong.
Very true.
THERE'LL NO RIP FOR THOSE TRAITORS WHO VOTED FOR A CONVICTED RAPIST. THOSE FARMERS WILL BURN IN HELL.
We taxpayers will wind up bailing them out. Again.
Gee, when you impose tariffs in order to collect $ for the Treasury, if you then bail out the people harmed by the tariffs with the same amount or more than you collected, you aren't saving any $, are you? I'm not great at math, but I can figure that out.
And they’ll keep voting for morons
Unfortunately, I believe you are right.
Trump will bail out his supporters and f the rest. Truely horrible man
They voted for Trump. Soon they’ll have their hands out again.
Maybe Trump will forget to bail them out this time?
China don't have a choice
That's why the farmers voted for him, they get a free hand-out.
The farmers can have a bailout ONLY if they sign a pledge (like Elon's) to only vote for DEMOCRATS. After all it's always a Democrat that fixes the GOP's mess!
They’ll get a bail out. They vote for stupid shit and then don’t suffer the consequences so they keep voting for stupid shit.
Wait til they dump all the Treasury’s they hold
Since farmers elected disgraced trumps they Must only get Loans like auto makers not Bail outs because of trumps botched tariffs!
China is bigger, smarter and richer. Another LOSER of a battle for the 🟠🍆. BRUTAL!!!
Thank Navarro who came up with this horrible tariff idea that the mentally ill one has latched on to.
This is Trump's fault!
Farmers with the blues! That’s why I’ve created a “Tariff Blues Playlist” on Spotify to remind us who really gets hurt by tariffs, our true values and character, & to add some encouragement when we get down. Please Follow, Listen, & Share. #tariffs #canada #hope open.spotify.com/playlist/4L6...
I hope there is no bailout for farmers this time.
RIP Walmart, Dollar Store, gas.
A whole lot of those farmers voted for Trump.
They voted for this!
Don’t look to Canada to buy them.
China trust the US system - they push back against this insanity and trust that there will be a self-correction from the US, America will not self-destruct because of the ego of one orange man. Let's prove them right.
EU is targeting red states- Louisiana looks to be a big loser. Nice, eh, for Johnson’s constituents?
Doesn’t matter, Trump being the genius that he is, will use the tariff income to bail out the farmers….With these tariffs and killing USAID Trump has basically destroyed large segments of farming in the USA.
We need to get him out of the White House and into a home. He’s also fucking delusional. He needs to go.
He will bail them out yet again. From the ppl who say they hate public assistance will be taking bail outs. Aid for me - but not for thee.
Exactly and we know they voted for him. It’s insane. He will offer the big farms subsidies like last time. Small and medium farms will get rolled and have to sell out to the large farms for less than value and the rich will get richer.
They should up it to 200%
Ginseng too. Don’t forget the specialty crops.
Fafo farmers
The second-largest category, integrated circuits used to manufacture electronic devices, constituted 6.1% of exports, or $9.4 billion. Other top exports to China included crude oil, blood and vaccines (for medical and pharmaceutical purposes), aircrafts and parts, cars and vehicles, and corn
Chinas in For the fight: someone had to not give him their lunch money. Hopefully Canada & Eu too! We’ll hunker down until he breaks!
China is relishing it, it’s their favourite game
We’re playing into their hand
Good Fuck every Magat farmer who voted for Trump Karma's a fucking bytch
No RIP. They are all in line for a federal bail-out! Just like last time. It's all a scam.
Please, they’ll get bailouts and continue to vote red🤬
Well, you get what you vote for....
Everything we use is made in China 😂 I mean…
Trump will do what he previously did, give them subsidies to buy their support for him.
He’ll use the tariffs to bail them out - like he did last time.
Some of the Trumpiest, most racist (redundant, I know) and awful people I've ever met were soybean farmers. It's great to hear the slap to their faces but still overall upsetting because, as a vegan, I eat mostly soy.
Is this what Trump meant when he said world leaders were kissing his ass? 😂
Trump will pay them off.
Hello Brazil!
apparently doesn't hit ackerman's bottom line yet. so it's the art of the deal.
He screwed them last time and a lot of them still voted for him again. They deserve everything that happens to them.
I think farming is the most socialist and communist sector of our economy. Think about it. 1. Who picks what kind of crops get subsidized or not? 2. When crop prices go down, the taxpayer makes up the difference. 3. Taxpayer subsidized crop insurance is there to pay when crops fail.
Bail out the farmers then buy the food, nothing like paying for food twice
How many of them voted for the asshole??
RIP Eastern Arkansas
Sorry for the farmers but HE will get $$ for them to make up losses as he did in 1st term. Of course no $$ to other workers who lose jobs etc. Only farmers, who probably voted for him.
Nope. Government Bailout
Trump will bail his supporters (farmers) out AGAIN and they will sell their products at a lower price to another country. Win win for our agricultural welfare class
Unfortunately, it’s much more sinister. They’re buying up the farmland from farmers at a big discount who will default because of this. Acre Trader is Vance and the techno bros latest project and Musk is quietly buying up seeds.
Water and food wars are in the beginning phases.
the gop is already getting a bill ready to bail out the farmers, they don't want to lose maga support and they know the farmers can sway those votes, the gop wants to take away social security and medicare, but corporate farmers, can't let them suffer
Pork producers
GOOD. The only problem is that we’ll have to bail them out AGAIN with taxpayer dollars. Just like during trump 1.0.
