Lets see if I understand the situation.
- Trump starts trade war with China.
- China retaliates, stops buying agricultural products from the americanos.
- Farmers sales crash.
- Cropping Loans for fertilizer, seed, herbicides, fuel, etc come due.
- Farmers start defaulting. (Looks like the opening scenes of the “Big Short” movie, where casual drive through housing developments shows big houses financed with short term debt starting to weigh on bank balance sheets.)
- Farmers plead with Trump for more welfare.
- Trump stiffs them
- Chinese buy all their soy beans from Argentina
- Trump gives $20billion USD to Argentina, thumbs nose at farmers.
- Farmer groups blame Biden policies, vote Republicans again in mid-terms.
About right, except I think China also buys a lot of soy beans from Brazil now as well.
Just so.
Farmer groups blame Biden policies, vote Republicans again in mid-terms.
and, thus, the circle of asshattery continues. lol
The US “reaps what it 'soy’s”. Terrible pun, I know. But truly, this cannot be a surprise to the well informed great businessman Trump (sarcasm)
Trump just really wants to be China’s soyboy.
