'I never thought I was going to lose this much money': Trump voter amid tariffs

[IronLionZion]

[Wonder Why]

1. You're going to lose even more, dumbo! You deserve it. Have a nice day. Thoughts and prayers.

[Ocelot II]

2. More leopard chow.

But at least the honey farmer realizes he'd been had. The other morons they interviewed were still guzzling the Kool-Aid.

[Wingus Dingus]

3. 10 seconds of this dipshit was all I could take.

[we can do it]

4. FAFO Boo hoo asshole.

[BOSSHOG]

5. I never thought so many of my fellow Americans

Were stupid enough to cheer on an obvious con. It’s just a thought. I’ve lost money too, fuck you very much.

[bucolic_frolic]

6. People with no understanding of international trade or tariffs making $$$$$$ decisions

Lots of farm and produce and canning companies sell to the federal government. Chop that spending and businesses will be hurt and food production reduced.

[getagrip_already]

7. The gov't buys huge amounts of dairy and grains as farm subsidies

They are redistributed to schools, homeless shelters, senior homes, etc as food aid. Both domestically and internationally. Not to mention to feed the military they are eliminating.

If the govt stops buying those products, prices will fall far below the cost to produce them.

11. Billions of pounds of frozen beef. Millions of pounds of cheese in cold storage. It's obscene.

[magicarpet]

8. Smear BBQ sauce all over your face,...

.... then go visit the large cat section of your local zoo.

Yum yum said the leopards.

[IronLionZion]

9. Leopards are eating very well

they don't have to worry about prices when they get all the food they want for free.

[marble falls]

10. Especially after he made so freaking much under Biden.

[IronLionZion]

12. But remember how we lost our freedoms during Biden's socialism?

me neither

[marble falls]

14. Me neither, too. It slays me to see how much infrastructure Biden got passed, that the GOP ...

... claims credit for after stalling and voting against it. Some of it's still being built and there are morons here who claim Mango Jebus is getting it done.

[NNadir]

13. I never thought my country would collapse because of idiots voting for an idiot.

[SamKnause]

15. I am so sick of these ignorant fucks. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know how they breathe without assistance.

Fuck all of them.

They voted to destroy this country.

They voted for a criminal to destroy our justice system.

They voted against their best interest and the interest of this country.

They voted for someone who doesn't believe in equal rights for women.

They voted to get rid of the department of education, because it is apparent they have no use for it.

They are my enemies.

They are enemies of my country.

They are pro Nazi.

They are pro Christian Nationalist.

Fuck all of them !!!!!!!!!!!

I wish there were a stronger way to express how vile I find all of them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

16. I admit I've got a lot of sympathy for this guy

He seems like a great beekeeper, a prosperous farmer in a tough business. He works long hours, collapses in front of his TV or computer, and gets sold a bogus bill of political goods.

I can't call him stupid because he's not.

He bought into ideology. The problem is that ideologues never think anything through to the end. They destroyed half his market because they think children, elderly and ill people, and people just temporarily down on their luck are leeches destroying capitalism. Ideologues just don't think beyond their simple solutions to complex problems and that's the mistake this guy made.

Those simple solutions can be very seductive to tired people who collapse at the end of 14 hour days and don't have the energy for much of anything else. I hope this guy manages to survive the next 3.5 years. Good luck to him, he'll need a lot of it.
