"Farmers have been hit so hard by the tariffs that Trump was forced to give them a $12B bailout... only necessary because #China retaliated against the #tariffs by refusing to buy #American agricultural products. #Trump had to give #farmers a $20B bailout for the same reason during his 1st term. This is classic #Trumponomics: create a problem, announce a partial fix that leaves everyone **worse** off than where they started, & declare victory."
