U.S. farmers facing steep losses this year welcomed President Donald Trump's $12 billion aid package announced on Monday, but said they would need more than that to fully offset low crop prices and lost export opportunities from his trade war.
Of course it's not enough. Farmers want to farm, not get handouts after Trump wrecks their living. This is a bad trade, not aid. And remember, Trump gave Argentina $40 billion and their farmers are selling the soybeans American farmers can't sell.
