Oren Lesmeister is a fifth-generation cattle rancher in South Dakota and a former Democratic state lawmaker there. He joins us now. Welcome.
OREN LESMEISTER: Thank you.
CHANG: So first, I just want to know that you voted for President Trump despite being a Democrat. What was your personal reaction to Trump's plan for the American beef industry?
LESMEISTER: Well, initially, I thought it was great. He was going to make farmers and ranchers first, America first and agriculture. Then, lately here, it seems like he's kind of jerked a rug right out from underneath us with the tariff talks coming off and Argentina beef quadrupling coming in and possibly other countries bringing in meat, also, right in the heart of the cattle run, when all these producers are selling their calves for the fall. And they only get one paycheck a year, and this is it, so it really hurt a lot of producers.
“BUT I THOUGHT THAT HE WAS ONLY GOING TO HURT THE BLACKS AND THE BROWNS AND THE QUEERS AND MAKE ME LOTS OF MONEY!”

Honestly, that’s more of a commentary on what shitty “friends” they are rather than FAFO.
If anything, the only thing it says about her is she’s a bad judge of friends.
They were a bad judge of friends, sticking with her so long after she married the goon.
That's more like it.

Yes - that’s why it’s in this thread. This area of Ohio is formerly Democratic but can’t stop believing Trump’s bullsh!t.
To be fair, this is the state where Haitians were eating the cats and the dogs. /s
More seriously, at the time the whole cats and dogs thing was going down, there were a bunch of factory owners who were interviewed about the Haitians. The owners were defending the Haitians and saying they were good workers who showed up on time and sober.
That tells the truth about the rest of the workforce available. It’s a bad generalization but there it is.

I cannot believe they are going after disabled people. How low can this administration go?

"A three-time Donald Trump voter" FAFO
If Trump is successful, this person won’t be around to vote much longer. That’s the biggest and saddest FAFO a person can have in a lifetime.
