Not a yuge Trump fan, but comparing tax breaks to subsidies is disingenuous at best.
That said, this issue raises my hackles and exposes the conservative / populist divide. I don’t suppose it will slow his run, but conservatives should ask themselves some hard questions.
Is there any major difference between ethanol subsidies and Solyndra, except big corn has been successfully stealing for decades and that solar power fraud never ruined anyone’s engine?

I am referencing the issue of government MANDATING the use of a terrible product like ethanol. The government is forcing a market for a product that would fail in the marketplace if not for the government mandates.
Trump supports expanding government mandates, he doesn’t get it.
