    You got exactly what you voted for you jackasses.

    Go protest, cause I’d love the farmers to be antifa.

    Well, at least they don’t have to worry about “liberals” inflicting horrible thoughts on them via Colbert or Kimmel.

    Are they tired of all the winning yet?

        Because conservative ideology requires an other to rally hate against so the base and core voters don’t realize its the elites and party leaders adding suffering to common folk lives for the elites short term benefit.

    This is no mistake. The general plot is to create a situation where land can be purchased all across the US at low cost. Then the land will be owned by the wealthy for data centres and corporate owned and governed cities, states and mini nations (e.g. the breaking up of US into smaller corporate nations).

    Complains that Americans are too lazy to milk cows and doesn’t realize they are part of that group. Doubt they will learn anything.

    Despite his troubles, Maxwell remains supportive of Trump, saying that he is “going to be patient,” adding, “I believe in our president.”

    However, there is a limit to Maxwell’s patience with Trump. “We’re giving him the chance to follow through with the tariffs, but there had better be results,” he said. “I think we need to be seeing something in 18 months or less. We understand risk—and it had better pay off.”

    They’re giving him 18 MONTHS?? For fuck sake, these people Do. Not. Learn.

      They didn’t learn in his first term. No way they’ll learn anything here either. These people are completely fucking stupid and never voted for him based on any kind of intelligence.

      Hopefully they are thinking of the midterms…if we have elections and the GOP gets whiplashed we just might be able to stop the worst of Trump. Imagine we get say 51 democrats in the sesnate along with a majority in the house that’s healthly.

      It’s only 24 months. I bet it won’t even take the whole 36 months. Just a quick and easy definitely less than 48 months.

      They didn’t recover a large part of their soy bean market during Biden’s administration where China picked back up some of the ag products and now they lost all of the market. They’re idiots if they think that this will recover any of their markets at any significant part this time around.

        Once China develops a buying source they aren’t likely to ever return. Why would they?

    MARC ANDEREESON wanted to buy up farm land in Solarno CA, for his “California Forever” private owned town.

    Thiel has expressed similar.

    Musk has his own corporate town (Starbase, Texas).

    Bezos has an area of Malaysia.

    Zuck has parts of Hawaii.

    Sam Altman invests in a private town in Honduras.

    …they ALL want private towns, fifedoms to rule over in America. And by rule over, I mean SETTING THEIR OWN LAWS.

    This is happening.

    Anyways, I’m sure this story on Trump bankrupting farmers is completely unrelated. I certainly have no evidence it’s related. But I think it’s concerning (farmers refusing to sell large tracts of America is what held up the “California Forever” project).

    You Aren’t Allowed in These Billionaire Towns

    “So much of what has happened and what’s going on here is totally out of our control,” Meadows said. “We just want a free, fair, and open market where we can sell our goods… as competitively as anybody else around the world. And we do feel that we produce a superior product here in the United States, and we just need to have the markets.”

    The Republican small government, everyone

    Why do I feel like these same people would say Biden’s economy was worse for them?

      The consequences don’t just effect one side. Musk now has his own town, Starbase, Texas. Marc Andreeson isn’t far behind.

      There is no being smug, the precedents will have far reaching effects.

        We can set our own precedents just like we had to with company towns in the 1800s. I heard about a man named Luigi who supposedly created a similar precedent in the modern era.

    No way of knowing this would happen says people who were told repeatedly what would happen, shown the plan of what would happen, and shown past historical examples of what would happen.
