Why the Hell Did Farmers Vote for Trump?

American farmers voted for Trump by huge margins... even though he campaigned on a tariff policy that was certain to start a trade war and hurt their exports of stuff like soy beans to China. He also promised to deport "illegal immigrants" (undocumented workers) who make up a large percentage of the farm sector's labor force. But they voted for him anyway - why?There is a narrative out there that they were lied to... but our guest, Sarah Taber (a farmer herself) exposes the real reasons farmers voted for Trump, and reveals that the American farmer is much different than the image we all have in our head... they are much wealthier on average than most people think.Mom and I discuss with Sarah the reality of farming in America - the H-2A visa program (which has been exploited by some contractors to the point that their practices qualify as slavery) and we discuss the possibility of a looming bailout... Should American farmers be bailed out or suffer the consequences of making a bad bet?Make sure to follow Sarah:‪https://www.youtube.com/@FarmToTaber
