Money that was used to lower their export taxes on soybeans so they could undercut US farmers on sales to China. A double-rugpull on a core maga voting bloc.
America First, amirite, magats?

But no money for tax subsidies for Medicaid. This is similar to Trump celebrating the return of 20 hostages that have been held for years, 40 people per **day** in the US are killed by firearms (not including suicides), over 60,000 Gazans have been killed during the war.

Trump implements Tariffs -> China stops buying soybeans from US farmers as Retribution and buys soybeans from Argentina instead -> Farmers go bankrupt, and Trump decides to bail out their foreign competition to the tune of 20 billion instead for *reasons*
They also cut pretty much the entirety of USAID that bought tons of produce from US farmers to ship overseas

Maybe you could bail out your own country to shore off en economic downturn in your own country?

Wasn’t the Argentina president the right wing whacko that campaigned with a chainsaw to show how he would slash spending and eventually inspiring Felon Musk to do the same with DOGE?
Maybe if they need a bailout, that philosophy isn’t as practical as they think.

Giving $20 billion to a failing right-wing regime while millions starve in the next few years because we dismantled USAID, which fed tons of people around the globe for a fraction of that money.

Destroy farmers then give 20 billion to their primary competition.
*The art of the deal*
(Yes I’m aware they want to bankrupt farmers to have private equity buy them up for pennies on the dollar)

As a Brit I’m genuinely worried this is a slippery slope to the US providing arms and/or support to Argentina in relation to the Falkland islands.

So it seems that having another Right Wing nut with bad hair have power doesn’t really work. More american money set on fire. We will never see that money back.

Look y’all I am getting really fucking sick of these people. I am tired of getting screwed by these rich assholes. They have broken everything, or stolen it.
I don’t know how much longer we can keep doing this shit. I hate my grandparents and parents for what they have done to us. I tried to tell them and they threw me away for it. My mother died of Covid on Christmas eve because she wouldn’t get vaccinated. An idea she got from MAGA.
I am sick of losing more each day. I will never love this nation like I once did. I know what we are now and I despise it. I used to feel connected to our nation but now I feel hated. I haven’t changed.

It means Donald Trump dated Gabriella Sabatini when she was 19 and he was 44 and he showed up to his Casino in AC with her and Jeff Epstein and two unidentified minors in their custody circa 1989 around the same time Monica Seles withdrew from Wimbledon for mysterious reasons and wound up staying at Mar a Lago, her family was “friends” with him, while she avoided the press. Now Argentina can apply pressure to Trump to get what it wants because he is/and or ran with the most notorious pedophile in history.

Republicans were upset about sending aid to Ukraine, but proud to send money to Argentina. Make it make sense. What happened to “take care of America first?”

My tinfoil hat theory is that this is a preemptive bribe so if things go south for them, our Nazis can flee to Argentina.
meanwhile here at home our farmers are suffering, people can’t afford housing or food, ect….
It means the House does not control the public purse anymore.
