I have nothing against farmers, either. But they are obviously a protected class
in American society. It was obvious to everybody, including farmers, that the policies
Trump trumpeted in his Presidential campaign would seriously hurt farmers. But as you
stated, farmers heavily influenced the election results ( ie they overwhelmingly
voted Trump ).
So now the American consumer is paying more for food, and at the same time
American taxpayer is going to give a large amount of socialistic monetary support
to the farmers of America. We are getting screwed over from both directions.
Nothing we can do about it either, except hopefully force change in the 2026 midterms,
and then hope that Congress actually seizes back the power of the purse
that the current Congress has handed over to the Executive Branch.
