Trump-voting farmers should be ashamed

Some farmers voted for President Donald Trump. They were willing to vote for racism, sexism, vulgarity, trophy wives and serial cheating, war against the environment, war against public education, war against facts and truth, war against our allies and an embrace of dictators, and war against decency — because they thought it was in their economic interest to do so.

Then Trump imposed tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, as he said he would. And the trade war he started with China, Mexico, Canada and the European Union is now harming farmers, as every economist — except White House trade director Peter Navarro — said it would.

Now, all Americans must pay billions of dollars in subsidies to the farmers (some of whom caused this mess). The Trump-voting farmers should be ashamed of themselves. Get rid of the tariffs and and protect the environment.
