It’s well known that the current regime is screwing up by the numbers, especially when it comes to our own farmers. Thanks to Trump’s tariffs, soybean farmers have been cut off from their biggest market, China, who is now getting their soybean from Argentina. Trump is also getting ready to upset the beef market by getting beef from South America. (Anybody else remember when the right wing didn’t want beef from Central and South America and raised holy hell about it? They made it have special stickers and everything)
Despite the fact that Trump can’t tell the difference between his ass and a hole in the ground, he is falsely claiming that farmers love him and approach him with tears in their eyes to thank him for destroying their markets.
On Saturday, John Boyd, Jr, a fourth-generation farmer and president of the National Black Farmers Association went on MSNBC’s Weekend Primetime to set the record straight:
HOST: Let’s bring in John Boyd, Jr to talk about this. he’s a fourth-generation beef cattleman and the founder of the National Black Farmers Association. John, first, i want to get your reaction to trump saying that farmers are only doing well because of something that trump has done.
