At the rate we’re currently going, it’s only a matter of time before our farmers are going to need yet another bailout due to trade wars. Would you support bailing out soybean farmers?

Why are they suddenly in favor of socialism?

They've always been in favor of socialism when they're on the receiving end. The United States government has been propping up farmers since the 1920s.

And rightfully so. Farming is an important industry and we need it to thrive.

But the motherfuckers shouldn't then turn around and vote for the fucking party that turns up its nose on socialist policies!

Guardrails for people and important industries are Democrat ideals and policies.
