….. sorghum produced in Nebraska and Kansas was already sold to China before it was even planted but Trump
killed that off with his fuck nuts trade policies. What did you think Trump would do this time? And BTW how are
Nebraska’s meat processing and packing plants doing without Hispanic employees?

“Nebraska is a major sorghum-producing state, typically ranking fifth nationally in total production. In 2023, over 225,000 acres were harvested in Nebraska, generating $75.9 million, according to the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service. Production is concentrated in the southern part of the state and often utilizes minimum or no-tillage planting systems.”

And will Trump and the Republican use taxpayer money to pay the farmers for their losses this time too?
