Summary

Tonight, Don takes a deep dive into the growing economic pain hitting America’s farmers , and why many rural voters who overwhelmingly backed Donald Trump in 2024 are now questioning the policies coming out of his administration. From rising fuel and fertilizer costs tied to the Iran conflict, to tariffs and economic uncertainty, farmers across the country are feeling squeezed from every direction. Joining the conversation are returning friends of the show, farmer and activist John Boyd Jr. and farmer Will Westmoreland, to talk about what they are seeing firsthand on the ground. How bad is it getting? Why are some longtime Trump supporters changing course? And what happens to the country when the people feeding America can no longer stay afloat?
