Trump’s Trade Policies Are Crushing Farmers — And GOP Lawmakers Still Gaslight Them

Описание: In this sharp and unapologetic breakdown, Tom Powell Jr. explains why he has little sympathy left for farmers who continue voting for politicians actively harming them. Using a jaw-dropping interview with Rep. Lincoln Hough as an example, Tom highlights how Republican lawmakers blatantly ignore their own constituents — even when farmers tell them directly that Trump’s trade policies and tariffs are destroying their margins.

In the clip, a Missouri farmer explains that fertilizer prices, fuel costs, and tariff retaliation have made farming unsustainable. But instead of listening, the congressman simply repeats Trump-approved talking points, blaming Joe Biden and insisting farmers “don’t understand” their own business.

Tom then pulls up actual data showing:

Fertilizer prices have spiked due to trade restrictions, input costs, and global disruptions,

Prices remain nearly 20% higher than a year ago,

Trump-era trade policies — not Biden — continue to force farmers into tighter margins and higher expenses.

Despite all this, GOP lawmakers cling to Trump’s coattails rather than acknowledge the truth: Trump’s policies are hurting American farmers, not helping them.

Tom’s message is clear: If farmers keep electing the same politicians who ignore their struggles, then they’re getting exactly what they voted for.
