While the Trumpf junta enriched themselves, Republican elites, and the oligarchs, the rate of farmer suicides and foreclosures has increased. The reckless dismantling of USAID removed the buyer of last resort for American agriculture. Moreover, harvests were wasted because ICE raids decimated the cheap labor that migrants once provided. So now Dummkopf Trumpf is turning to socialism, something Republicans supposedly abhor. Socialism is defined "as a system of social organization in which the ownership and distribution of property and income are subject to social or political control." Trumpf's socialist tactic is applying a Band Aid to a corpse. As well as driving up their health insurance premiums, the 'BBB' will permanently impact rural hospitals that farmers need. The tariffs have fueled inflation that is reducing farmer's, and every American's, purchasing power. This is a solution that temporarily benefits a narrow bandwidth of the American electorate.
