Unfortunately most of these farmers will keep voting Republican. They cut off their noses despite their faces but watch, they'll get a bail out.
Yeah but SNAP, SBP and WIC programs will be dismantled.

It's like he's playing some kind of freakish deranged reality game. Squid Game like.

If I was a European footballer or an American soccer player from another country I'd be very hesitant about participating in the FIFA World Cup in the US. I would be fine in South America and I'd be fine in Canada however I would be scared shitless of being deported to some weird country from the US

So tRump administration dismantled USAID, the US agency for humanitarian aid so he could bail out Argentina. I'm sure his tariffs he put on Argentina didn't help their financial problems. Oh guess what? China just bought 2.27 million metric tons of soybeans from Argentina.

Regardless if they're drug runners or not. The president cannot legally order the killing of a drug dealer, runner or drug manufacturer/cook. That violates several foundational principles of international & domestic law.
