So he didn't cause the problem but he did fix it (by lifting steel and aluminum tariffs he had imposed, which did cause the problem, but he can't admit that), for which "solution" he now takes credit, and if the farmers are STILL mad (because their markets work on long term contracts, not immediate retail sales, and they may have lost those sales this year), then the blame goes to the Secretary of Agriculture.Starting Monday, our great Farmers can begin doing business again with Mexico and Canada. They have both taken the tariff penalties off of your great agricultural product. Please be sure that you are treated fairly. Any complaints should immediately go to @SecretarySonny Perdue!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 20, 2019
I'd say it was unbelievable, but by now it isn't. (And if the farmers buy this, they deserve what they get. Farm subsidies are pure socialism, but they hate socialism. Is this a great country, or what?)
