if you suspect trump is who he advertises himself as, consider what his assault on china has produced for farmers here in the empire;
U.S. farmers have never experienced a year quite like this. During
the first half of 2019, endless rain and unprecedented flooding were the
major problems. As a result of the incredibly wet conditions, millions
of acres of prime farmland didn’t get planted at all, and tens of
millions of other acres are going to yield a lot less than usual. Even
without anything else happening, we were going to see farm bankruptcies
soar to absolutely crazy levels, but now the Chinese government is
essentially cutting off U.S. agricultural imports. This will greatly
depress the prices that U.S. farmers get for their crops, and so many
farmers that were still hoping to squeeze out a profit for this year
will be hit with a loss instead. Ultimately, the truth is that 2019 is
going to be a death blow for countless U.S. farmers that were barely
hanging on financially after a string of really tough years. Many will
leave the industry entirely and never go back to farming again, and our
nation will be worse off because of it.
When the Chinese announced that they were going to completely stop buying U.S. agricultural products,
it sent shockwaves across the middle portion of the country. According
to the executive vice president of the American Farm Bureau, our
farmers and ranchers will now be facing “just a really tough, tough time”….........http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/worst-year-ever-the-chinese-ban-on-u-s-agricultural-products-will-be-a-death-blow-for-countless-u-s-farms
