“So when other candidates came here, they had, like, six people,” indicted felon still in the GOP nomination race Donald Trump tells a crowd of cultists at a fair in Iowa in his typical lying dick-measuring contest. “We have, like, thousands. [garbled] … stopped at three different places. We’ve, uh, never been treated so well. You know we got Iowa–you know this–[something] from China. Twenty-eight billion. Nobody else got you ten cents.”
The reality of Trump’s claim is, obviously, dubious. What he may be discussing is the agricultural aid funds his administration had to spend to bailout farmers who were adversely impacted by Trump’s own trade wars. His first bailout was a $12 billion handout in July 2018; it was followed up with an additional $16 billion in May 2019.
