Ex-GOP official and farmer: I wouldn't vote for Trump again if he walked on water
The Hill ^ | 10/14/19 | Justine Coleman

A former GOP county chairman and Ohio farmer said Monday he wouldn't vote for President Trump again even if the president walked on water.

Chris Gibbs, the former chairman of the Shelby County Republican Party, told CNBC that he feels "dubious" about the Trump administration's announced agricultural buys from China amounting to $40 billion to $50 billion amid the heated trade war between Washington and Beijing that experts say has hit farmers particularly hard.

"He could come up with this $50 billion, he could walk across my pond and not get wet, and I'm still not going to vote for him because, you know, at the end of the day my name is Chris Gibbs, it's not Judas...

The farmer grows soybeans. The Chinese import soy beans to feed hogs. The African swine fever is killing off 20%+ of China’s hogs, which is about equal to the number raised in the USA. The Chinese might eat more tofu because the price of pork has doubled, but that will not make up for all of the hogs that don’t need his feed.

Trump is not the problem for this guy.

Chris Gibbs may not be a Judas but, he is weaker than a newborn baby...

Thanks for the mention. Sounds like you’re right.

I fail to see how Democrats will benefit him.

Makes me question his comment, “...won’t vote for Trump again”

The Dems will probably outlaw farming in the U.S. and all our food will come from other countries.Sometimes there will be shortages and people will starve...until the POP gets to where the Dems want it.

Democrat.

Voting against President Trump is voting for Democrat Federal judges. Democrat Federal judges think they run the country.

For instance, Democrat Federal Judge George Daniels (Rapin Bill "judge") in the Southern District of New York issued a temporary nationwide injunction stopping the administration from enforcing the “public charge” rule linking immigrants’ legal status to their use of public benefits.

Trouble is, the "public charge" rule has been SETTLED LAW for a very long time:

(4)Public charge

(A) In general Any alien who, in the opinion of the consular officer at the time of application for a visa, or in the opinion of the Attorney General at the time of application for admission or adjustment of status, is likely at any time to become a public charge is inadmissible.

U.S. Code § 1182.Inadmissible aliens

(a)Classes of aliens ineligible for visas or admissionExcept as otherwise provided in this chapter, aliens who are inadmissible under the following paragraphs are ineligible to receive visas and ineligible to be admitted to the United States:

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1182

Since the 1800s, Congress has put into statute that individuals are inadmissible to the United States if they are unable to care for themselves without becoming public charges.

I went back to check on this guy, found he was rather pro-Romney, and liked the TPP.

Here is an example:

I wouldn’t sweat this guy at all. Most farmers I know support Trump considering a lot of them suck on government program money.

Q: Do you know how to starve a farmer?
A: Weld their mailbox shut.

This useful idiot must be betting his farm that someone will develop and market a electric tractor before the Green New Deal becomes a reality. Diesel tractors will not be allowed.

If he’s a member of the NFO (National Farmers Organization) he’s a leftist to begin with.

-——I’m citing the Hill’s very own political polling, so save your crap for the libs.-——

I’d like nothing better than Trump to get 35% of the male black vote....

Remember it’s a poll....not Election Day.....

Polls are ALWAYS spot on....right?

Chris Gibbs, the former chairman of the Shelby County Republican Party.
He is also the President of the Gateway arts council. For the performing arts.

I have a feeling that is the beginning of his rabbit hole. I also found some very odd Youtube channel that was created by this group. This youtube channel was linked to their youtube channel with only this one video on it.

If you click on "Caryl Little - Topic"
Go too About: It has a link for Auto generate videos.
Now that video you just watched is gone. Fake youtube channels.

“ So he’d rather vote for a dem who will regulate his farming business to death”

So, how many acres will he be able to plant before he has to recharge his electric tractor?
