Watch: “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” Lampoons Trump’s Tariffs With New Cartoon
Farm away!
Right now we, the United friggin’ States, are in a midst of a trade war with China. As a result, President Donald Trump has begun placing Tariffs on a bunch products coming into the United States from the Middle Kingdom which means China isn’t buying food from our farmers, neither. Doing this causes discomfort for our farmers which may have gotten a little better as a result of the Mexican/Canadian trade deals finally being closed, but it looks like China’s going to be in this tiff for the long haul. The Don notes that we actually had a deal in place, but China backed out of it. T
To help understand the ramifications of the deal, the producers at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert put together a little ditty that shows the extremes that farmers have to go to so as to make ends meet. We come to learn that this may, or may not, include stripping and other odd jobs. Check it out.
