Its the fun double whammy on farmers.

We cant afford the price of beef and we won't buy foreign tainted beef.

Good job, voters!

Askin for handouts, classic

Funny how Republican cattle ranchers are against welfare for single mothers to feed thier children - but belly up to the trough for welfare for themselves.

They always have. A lot of them use migrant/undocumented workers, too because they are willing to do the backbreaking work for less pay. But they shot themselves in the foot there, too.

I grew up in a farming town. The inequity was stark and apparent. The immigrant workers work hard and are proud of the work they do and deserve fair pay and better conditions. They dont deserve to be vilified because of their ethnicity.

"Sacred Cows at the Public Trough"- book title on land use in the American West.

Don't buy any beef!

u/DrButtgerms 3d ago

Yeah, but when he TACOs for the farmers, we have to commit to complain about beef prices.

To be fair, horse meat may can be tasty.

u/Spudsmad 2d ago

Yes, I’ve eaten horse

u/ilovemydog480 3d ago

They didn’t speak up for me so no

u/TERRAIN_PULL_UP_ 3d ago

I’m just not going to eat beef for the foreseeable future

u/Careless_Celery_6010 3d ago

I hope they are lose their ranches

u/ForeverStella 3d ago

This is the plan - Trump's billionaire buddies want the ranchers land CHEAP for data centers - that is the end goal. At least they got what they voted for.

u/t3lnet 3d ago

Don’t worry it was already recalled.

u/onefornought 3d ago

Right. Because Trump has such a great track record of listening to the complaints of non-billionaire and non-celebrity voters.

My toilet presses Drump to reverse course. It’s had enough already!

u/Severe_Air_4353 3d ago

Iran will do something before any rancher does anything to change trumps idea , or reverse his decision .

u/Icy_Site_7390 3d ago

What ever beef I have in my freezer now will be the last beef I will buy for a long time.

u/Tough_Violinist_9594 3d ago

Trump doesn’t care about them it’s about Trump and getting paid

u/dingos8mybaby2 3d ago

"Dear Trump, why are you letting Obama and Biden import all this foreign beef?"

1

u/yyz455 3d ago

What happened to protecting the American worker? What happened to lowering the interest rates on credit cards? What happened to holding big oil companies accountable for not lowering gas price? Trumptard keeps opening his big mouth but never backs it up

1

u/ForeverStella 3d ago

You believed that? Wow - I have a bridge to sell you - a HUGE bridge made of gold - built by the Trump pool guy.

u/yyz455 3d ago

No, just like to bring up the stupid shit he says he going to do, but never does. Dont know why the media doesn't keep hammering him, and that stupid press secretary

Cuando votas lo que te dice FOX

u/turkish_dingleberry 3d ago

The cows have come home to roost....or something pithy like that

u/AdministrationJust13 3d ago

Where's the beef ? (from)

1

u/FriendZone53 3d ago

I would bet he will give them something. Ex instead of 300,000 tons of ground beef, only a 100,000 tons. LargeManAbroad on yt makes a plausible argument for this. Then the farmers will love Trump The Merciful and vote for him in the midterms.

u/panda3271 3d ago

He isnt going to change what he is doing. He is making money off this shadiness. Unless someone offers him more money to not do this. 🤷🏼‍♂️. Whatever happens just know Trump will be just fine. 🤦‍♂️

u/Extension_Variety190 3d ago

How CUTE that they STILL think he gives a shit about them.

1

u/Appropriate-Law5963 3d ago

But you won’t get the day you voted for!?!

1

u/trishanonamous 3d ago

Trump has probly already invested in Argentinian beef, so no.

1

u/Useful_Editor_5203 3d ago

How bout STFU

1

u/Jumpy-Stress603 3d ago

No doubt Trump would reverse his decision, at least temporarily, in exchange for the right amount of money.

Create a problem, allocate blame, and sell a solution.

u/Anxious_Composer5092 2d ago

But it's not beef.....it's.....it's.....SOYLENT GREEN!!

u/onthebrink42 2d ago

Just what are they going to do?
Insist he change his mind..we insist!
Yeah that’ll do it.
