bail outs ahead for American farmers ?

The U.S. exported $176 billion of agricultural goods in 2024, and the three largest destinations for those exports were Mexico, Canada, and China, according to the Farm Bureau.


During Trump's first term, his trade war with China caused American farmers to lose one of their largest export markets. The Trump administration provided a $28 billion bailout via a New Deal–era program at the Department of Agriculture.


How much will Donald have to pay out this time to keep farmers in business ?

Ima sure all those rural red state farm people understand and are still right behind Fearless Leader. Right?

It might help if American rice was not tarrifed in Japan

Or American butter in Canada

I am not sure about this, but I think Americn corn has obsticals in Europe as well

You do know that both Canada and Japan only impose tariffs above a certain level. In the case of butter in Canada I don't know that any has EVER been affected because the amount tariff free is so high.
