Bill Gates, who owns 270k acres of farmland, is also just a humble farmer feeling the pain.
He’s a farmer just like Katy Perry is an astronaut
Trump kept 12 goats on his New Jersey golf course for years in order to get a $900,000 tax break. That's what these people mean when they say they're 'farmers' lol
They're all "farmers", for tax purposes
Plot Twist: Bessent’s soy bean farm is in Argentina
How dare you Ontario/Canada trying to influence Americans. Only AIPAC is allowed to do that.
Canadian here. Emily what we want is for USA to uphold the deal that they made when TRUMP was last in power and negotiate in good faith.
Emily - if you think this ad is insulting and stupid, can you imagine how we feel every time Trump says we should become the 51st state? Trump started this so go pound sand.
Emily didn't watch the clip she's talking about lol.
