Did he leave anything for US taxpayers who picked up 62% of the entire crop insurance tab this year, then kicked in another $50B+ for off-budget Covid/trade war subsidies? Asking for some in-town neighbors—320 million of ‘em. https://t.co/sbpHBiM337

Here’s a freebie reply for @JoeBiden: For years, Americans have been led to believe that Donald Trump got ahead because of a rich father. Turns out it was more like a rich uncle-Uncle Sam! https://t.co/IwLtMIYOxe

In the six yrs that Ernst has been on Senate Ag Committee, US taxpayers have sent farmers $109B in *direct farm program payments* ($60B in 2019 & 2020 alone). All the ethanol in the world, let alone Iowa, can’t fix that problem. https://t.co/B5P3nKd87Q

No surprise; the Cotton Gang historically has been the biggest winner in farm bailouts. Also no surprise, Corn & SB Gang whining they didn’t get as much. But biggest non-surprise? No one asking what’s wrong w/ ag policy that requires bailout after bailout. https://t.co/WdlK54MN5J
