Trump has made farmers the new welfare Queens. The Trump administration is preparing a large-scale bailout for U.S. farmers hit hard by China’s decision to cut off agricultural imports. According to National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, the relief package will be released once the ongoing government shutdown ends. He described the plan as ‘clever and generous,’ although specific figures and funding details have not yet been made public. The move comes in response to China’s near-total halt of American farm imports, particularly soybeans.
