Farmers refuse to cheer for Trump as he lies that he’s fighting for them to keep their land
he promised was that he was fighting for them
to have their water rights and rights to control their own land usage.
As one viewer noted, there was noticeable silence when Trump mentioned land usage.
It could be due to the fact that Trump is suing in court to take the land of farmers and ranches so he can build his border wall.
For some, the land has been in their family since the founding of the state of Texas.
Trump was also caught in multiple lies and twisting of the truth.
He claimed that under former President Barack Obama’s administration, farmer income fell.
He didn’t mention that it topped out at the highest it’s ever been,
He also didn’t address the costs he’s forced on farmers due to his tariffs with China.
While Trump provided corporate farms with multiple bailouts,
those who don’t run huge farms lost a lot of money and many were even forced to file for bankruptcy.
Farmer suicides also saw an increase under Trump.
Thanks to Trump’s tariffs,equipment costs also significanlty increased.
