GOP Senators Say President Trump’s Trade War Will ‘Undermine Rural Economy’ | Hardball | MSNBC

Those voters listened to Fox News
Trump listens to Fox News.
Lesson: Don’t listen to Fox News.

Republicans whine about the damage trump is doing but don't have the spine to confront him.

[macharius]

I have no sympathy for these people. They didn't educate themselves and voted poorly. They are getting their just reward for doing so.

[DIRKDIGG]

China will buy soy beans from Argentina & Brazil. No 2 & 3 in terms of production.
Think soy bean farmers in the USA will be in strife

"Please, please, it's too much winning, we can't take it any more. Mr. President, it's too much!"
Spanky Drumph is showing himself to be the loser-in-chief to the world, and all but his blindly loyal tribe of tRumpanzee followers. Sad

Gotta love the Rich folks patting him on the back

The mid-west farmers will take the hardest hit. Being rural mid-west myself, I didn't vote for him. But all of America will suffer, food prices will go up. Cost is part of the problem that manufacturing jobs left. What happens when the "farmers" become corporate entities that have no morals and further taint our food.

[jrocksas]

When is this man playing president gonna end?

[walkingblueraven]

"What can go wrong" ... Now that made me laugh ... What has gone right in this campaign/presidency!

[berniejaramillo]

Already heard from rancher friends complaining about lower prices they are getting for their cattle and they are putting the blame on Trump.

[jerrysedlacek]

If this goes badly we could see food prices in this country double, or triple if Trump breaks the backs of farmers.

[jamesl]

Nobody knew health care could be so complicated. Except for all the people who work in health care. But I think everything I know nothing about will be easy. Like getting rich. It’s so easy. Just be born into a rich family. And getting hot women. Just throw money at them. Trust me. Believe me. Would I lie to you?

[Alcagaur]

Can I buzzer Chris off at the start here? He said, "He (Trump) seems to be thinking" and I must take issue with that premise.

[tamugray]

Soybeans are also used in the manufacture of automobile and farm equipment seats

[rahimmajid]

i guess pretty soon Trumpettes cannot use the economy to defend him anymore.

[ttrev]

I wonder what the big money behind the GOP think about what Trump is doing?

[Tiberius]

Old McDONALD had a farm, E-I-E-I No Mo. 🍇🍊🍏🍓🍉🌽

[shankoff]

The grades are in for Trump: foreign relations F, economy F, domestic policy F, stupidity A+.

[babablue]

Let Trump draw back from brink .Let China keep going that will serve Trump right.

A BOUGHT LESSON IS BETTER THAN A TOLD ONE...😶
