Shithead wants an additional $15 billion in U.S. subsidies in an effort to protect farmers from the devastating impact of his trade war with China. That’s on top of $12 billion already earmarked for the farmers to help them weather the fallout of this disaster.
That would be an additional bill for U.S. taxpayers already shouldering the cost of increased tariffs in the form of higher costs for products and parts from China, and you can bet your ass it's going to get worse.
Trump revealed the subsidy figure in a tweet Friday. He suggested the government use the funds to buy agricultural products to ship to other nations for humanitarian aid (LOL), though setting up such a system would be extremely complicated. In his most recent budget proposal, the moron proposed eliminating three food aid programs, but I guess he forgot about that part.
The Liar-in-Chief appeared to dismiss the impact of the cost as he falsely claimed — again — that “massive” tariff payments are being paid by China “directly” to the U.S. Treasury, which would presumably be used to cover the cost of the subsidy. There is “absolutely no need to rush” to negotiate a deal with China, he tweeted.
In fact, the tariffs are paid by U.S. importers, who pass on the extra costs to the American consumer in the form of higher prices for products, a fact White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow admitted yesterday (he should tell his boss)
Economists have estimated that the trade war is costing the U.S. more than $3 billion a month, a number that now will increase dramatically with the imposition of the new tariffs announced on Friday.
Gotta keep those Trump supporting nitwit farmers happy, right?
Fuck the rest of the country.
Oh, listen to this Trump supporter cry now that he's finally figuring out he's fucked
