The point being that we've always subsidized farmers (including your hero) so don't act like this is something Trump invented. If you look at the link, you will see under DumBama, we subsidized farmers more that 12 billion for 2016.
And the extra $12B?
We will likely save more than that by cutting food stamps. Plus for the next ten years, we will be spending 90 billion dollars less than projected:

Food stamps? Shouldn’t the food be free since Trump has paid them already?
Do I have to sit here and explain everything to you?
No…but do explain this.
We can’t afford a pay raise for government employees but we can afford to give $12B to farmers who already got a subsidy.
How can you be for the latter but not for the former under the guise that “we can’t afford it”?
Won’t you just admit that you’re fine with Trump doing it because farmers voted for him and you’re against the pay raise because government employees are not as dependable a voting faction for your blob?
