In remarks on Monday, Donald Trump addressed his ongoing trade wars by saying that American farmers will completely understand if the increased tariffs on their goods cause them to be ruined financially.

Just think of all the land to be had by pushing more farmers to financial ruin. Maybe he'll let them work his land as "sharecroppers".

I am constantly baffled by these folks who just love this toddler-in-chief...unfortunately, they have no knowledge of governing, just like the tRump crime family. We are sooooo screwed!
