The overwhleming majority of the farming community wants Trump is hit them even harder. So what's the purpose of the "please think of the miniscule number of Democrat farmers"? To guilt us into being sympathetic to the rabidly MAGA farming community in general? www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Rural NC has been committing suicide for 20 years. They willingly kill themselves with opioids; voting against any chance to improve their lives because they’re hella racist. Let the communities die at this point; and have democrats stop bailing them out whenever they have the chance.
