The Trump administration is exploring options to shield American farmers from deepening fallout as its trade conflict with China intensifies, including a possible revival of bailout programs once used during earlier skirmishes with Beijing.

According to Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, officials are "looking at that again," referencing a $28 billion aid package deployed during President Trump’s first term through the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC), a government-owned entity designed to support farm incomes and prices.

ONE reader ask a pertinent question:

Doesn't this defeat the whole purpose of the Tariffs. Oh Well!!

What? With food prices so high in the US, why are farmers needing to export, or even get bailed out?

Just sell in the US!!

One of his arguments for supporting his tariffs on china is that they subsidize their industries with public funds... And his solution to the fallout is to subsidize industries with public funds.

Any Trumptards waking up to the bullshit yet? You still think he's not in place to usher in the great reset?
