    The hypocrisy. The shilling. The misdirection. All in one tweet. All par for the (golf) course.

    By our people, does he mean white like him or non-white, like his wife, Usha?

    I laughed at the Whitman line because it is so true.
    Note to Bret Stephens - please don't take yourself so seriously, no one else does.
    There's a pretty good reason why many New York Times writers have earned pariah status.

    I don't know which is more ridiculous - noted figures announcing they are "leaving Twitter" or announcing that they are "coming back." Also irritating - friends announcing they are leaving Facebook. Why do you have to announce it? Just don't post. I rarely post or interact - but I do enjoy keeping tabs on folks.

    So Bolsonaro favors destroying the environment for business interests, was slow to react when a natural disaster struck his country, whines about slights from Macron, and is a total bigot.

    "Trump of the Tropics"?

    I just don't see it.

    One thing Trump has proven beyond the shadow of a doubt: America's farmers are the most racist mf'ers you'll find anywhere.

    Otherwise, how can explain this disconnect?

    More than a year into the trade dispute, sales of American soybeans, pork, wheat and other agricultural products to China have dried up as Beijing retaliates against Mr. Trump’s tariffs on Chinese imports. Lucrative contracts that farmers long relied on for a significant source of income have evaporated, with Chinese buyers looking to other nations like Brazil and Canada to get the commodities they need. Farm bankruptcy filings in the year through June were up 13 percent from 2018 and loan delinquency rates are on the rise, according to the American Farm Bureau.

    The predicament of farmers is becoming a political problem for Mr. Trump as he heads into an election year. For months, farmers have remained resolute, continuing to pledge support to a president who says his trade policies will help the agricultural industry win in the end. While there are few signs of an imminent blue wave in farm country, a growing number of farmers say they are losing patience with the president’s approach and are suggesting it will not take much to lose their vote as well.
