[2019 flashback article] Amid Trump Tariffs, Farm Bankruptcies And Suicides Rise - eviltoast

Trump was on Univision yesterday for a town hall, and during one exchange he made a huge deal about how great he was for farmers. Additionally, he’s been talking about crazy tariffs again at recent events like the Economic Club of Chicago. With those things in mind, I thought it would be relevant to take a quick walk down memory lane. It’s also worth noting, the article is pre-COVID - August 30, 2019. As many people with functioning memories will recall, things would not go on to get better from there.
