15. Even after Krasnov uses tax money to pay the farmers for their losses they will still be screwed

Sun May 4, 2025, 07:38 AM

May 4

The first time Krasnov lost the Chinese market for American sorghum of which 90% + was
already sold even before the seeds were planted and now they are going loose that market again
and our beef markets, hog markets, wheat markets, rice markets, and so on will be lost again
and this time getting those markets back is going to be much tougher.

FAFO Trump voting farmers. They knew he was a shit but they couldn’t vote for a black
woman and one of their own in Farmer Tim Walz. I hope they suffer. Fuck ‘em.

Looking for some face to eat.

They knew!
