They should get some relief since it is government themselves that tell them what they can and cannot grow by bribing them then putting quotas on them if they don't take the bribe.
The farmers can plant something else, or better yet turn their farmland back into forest. American consumers will pay less for products that foreign countries tariff. I don’t support subsidies. “Farmers” are really multinational mega-corporations, not the mom-and-pa idealistic anacronisms.
I have no problem assisting farmers who have made a real effort to compete in these rapidly changing times. Their situation is getting dire. Incomes have not risen in over a decade for most. Now it looks like many are going to take it on the chin, as farmers often have a great deal of debt to pay down. China is directly targeting them for democratically electing a president in their own sovereign nation. 60 years ago, we would not have stood by helplessly and watched as a communist regime targets American workers, farmers and producers.

Yet our own president is doing it now. Except now he's proposing using taxpayer money to bail out farmers only. Yet many non-farming businesses will be negatively impacted by the trade war yet they get no bail out. And individual American consumers will be impacted by the trade war and they have to pony up to bail out the farmers.
It's taking money from regular joe non-farmer citizen and taking money from non-farming businesses to bail out the farmers. Those non farming businesses will lay off employees and make regular joe non-farmer unemployed.
redistrubution of money to the farmers...off the backs of everyone else. Even if it means other people get layed off.
