Mainecat Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Millionaire Sen. Chuck Grassley Applying For Trump's Farm Bailout Funds Source: Huff post 09/30/2018 11:39 pm ET He’s dipping into Trump administration’s $12 billion program to subsidize farmers hurt by Trump’s trade war. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) supported President Donald Trump’s $12 billion bailout for U.S. farmers to mitigate the damaging effects of the trade war. Now the senator is applying for those same bailout funds for his own 750-acre Iowa farm, The Washington Post reports. In the spring, Grassley issued a statement saying that the Trump administration had a “responsibility to help” farmers hurt by retaliatory tariffs set by China after Trump enacted tariffs against Chinese imports. Bailout money isn’t being provided to other industries impacted by the trade war. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has already cut some 7,800 checks worth a total of $25 million for farmers, many in the swing states of the Midwest that voted for Trump in 2016. Rep. Collin Peterson (D-Minn.), the ranking Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee, argued against using a bailout program to mitigate a problem created by the administration, saying it would set a bad precedent by politicizing farm payments. Farmers “want their markets left intact and not screwed up by some policy,” he said earlier this year. .............................................. While the bailout program has been pitched as aid to struggling farmers, Grassley’s net worth was listed in 2015 as $3.3 million, and Tester’s was $3.9 million that year, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. ...............................

Well there is some irony in a Dump ballwasher supporting his tariffs and then taking advantage of a new government subsidy to offset said tariffs......both supported by the recipient Edited October 1, 2018 by SnowRider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i have said all along if trump wins this dangerous game he's playing he deserves relection in 20 because he's doing something that others haven't had the balls to do. if he loses or draws then he goes out with a bunch of other trash in 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
