    1. Thune voted 14 times to open the government, Schumer voted 14 times to not open government, sounds like Democratic shutdown.

      1. Republicans tried to do a one-party railroad job without enough votes to do it. That’s malpractice. Stupid malpractice. Thuggery.

  1. I wonder when the farmers that voted for Trump will realize that the Chinese soybean fiasco , the 20 Billion to Argentina, the importation of Argentina beef and the fact that Trump opened up the Chinese/Brazil/Argentina alliance was just a trial run.
    He ran you to the brink. You were praying for a bailout.
    AG related suicide is at an all time high.
    Now that he knows that he and his Billionaire cronies can bankrupt you in one season, He and the Trillionaire Nazi Musk will buy your farmland for pennies on the dollar.
    And you actually think he gives a crap about you.

        1. A lot of people were here legally and had their legal status rescinded. That’s the dirty way you played this.
          We had the greatest country on earth under Biden, and Trump has now created the world’s first ever First-World sh**hole. No lie you keep telling about Biden hides that truth.

    1. TruthHurts, Republicans don’t concern themselves with whether a politician cares about them. It’s not his job to care about us. We’re adults.
      When Obama was elected in 2008 there was a survey done that showed the number one reason People voted for him was their belief “he cares about me.”
      If you ever wanted proof the Democrats haven’t grown up, that was it.
      It continues, when Noem was in office the most often heard complaint was “she doesn’t care about anybody.” That was it. No policy disagreements, just whining because she wasn’t supplying them with warm fuzzies.
      When Republicans want somebody to care about them, they get a dog. Nobody will ever care as much about you as a good dog.

      1. Anon 7:22 is nuts. THE WHOLE OF MAGA is a truth rejecting aggregation of angry Fox News fans, and their KEY BELIEF is that Trump cares about them, enough to give them back the 1953 America they long for. Fox News is FILLED with Trump coddling fluffing crap to keep this whole mindset on the rails.
        Don’t give me any of that “Dems are weak-minded” b.s. The record is so so showing us the opposite.

        1. You really don’t understand why people actually support Trump. We agree with his policies and believe he’s been more effective in implementing them than any of the alternative.

          I’ve personally known quite a few politicians, some who I like personally and some I don’t, but when I vote I’ll vote for the one I believe will be the most effective in implenting polcies I support.

    1. And a bonus…Chuckie will be eaten by lunatic fringe of his party
      Bye bye chuckie.

      Oh, and Trump keeps winning and fixing what bidumb broke.

  2. JRT looks tired…at least he got a payday in for his fellow senators (nothing for farmers or ranchers though).
