What you're saying is so limited in thought.

Really??

You don't have a clue.

I attended WSU, a land grant university in Pullman Washington state.

Huge Ag department and a great veterinary school along with a number of other sciences and degree programs.

I developed a number of friends from nearby farms who kids attended the school in the Inland Empire. I worked part time in engineering at the PBS station, KWSU-TV and radio that the school started up many decades earlier. I even had the pleasure of airing the Senate Watergate hearings live on PBS in the afternoons after my engineering classes working as a Master control engineer at the tv station and was fortunate to be one of the highest paid students on campus!

And then after graduating with a BSEE I was hired full time as an engineer at the station and had the pleasure of putting together a one hour weekly show for farmers that aired in Eastern Washington and Eastern Oregon along with a number of other programs that aired on the PBS network.

So to this day I remain in contact with many of these farmers who took over from their parents and I am fortunate to have a good understanding of the problems they all face today.

What I find incredibly disturbing today is the fact many farms require migrant workers to manage and harvest their crops and now that many of these temporary workers are not showing up farms here in the Northwest and other areas of the country are experiencing loss of crops because the manpower to harvest them no longer exists.

Trump doesn't have a clue of the massive impacts to farmers that didn't exist just a few years ago.
