False. Farmers are all GOP voting lazy welfare queens

Tell them to return those government checks then!

Careful Comrade Grassley.

well, Sen Grassley, continue to support your genius Prez and go explain why to your farmers.

You want trade or do you want to be scr*wed for the next 50 years?

Dumbest quote ever. Take away their subsidies for Corn, Sugar and anything else and see where you get.

Republicans believe in capitalism as long as it suits their need to pilfer. When it doesn’t work so well for them they have their hands out for the Government titty.

Then take away the tariffing authority that you ceded to the President.

NOT TRUE, they prefer work less hours and not overwork the land while GET PAID.

Unless it’s ethanol mandates. Then he’s all for aid.

No, no trade for you. Welfare is gonna do just fine. Thank you Donald Trump for pulling the wool over the eyes of so many.

Sen. Van Hollen: John Bolton is ‘a skilled bureaucratic inside fighter’Sen. Van Hollen discusses a letter he sent to President Trump, and why Congress needs to be briefed on the growing tensions with Iran: 'It's outrageous that we've gotten this far down the road without a briefing from the executive branch.' I'm beginning to think that instead of sending letters to Trump, members of Congress should send him Tweets. That's one form of communication he always seems to respond to. Maybe the only one... Obama did the same with Syria and Libya and Congress, the media and the left just seat and did nothing to stop this false flag war.
