        They’re dumping it or selling for a lower price to farmers.

        Rexburg is the biggest town in Madison County, Idaho. Here are the county results for the 11/5/24 elections:

        • Donald J. Trump (REP) - 13,925 votes
        • Kamala D. Harris (DEM) - 2,767 votes

        It’s highly likely that this farmer voted for the regime that is fucking him up.

      Why aren’t people eating potatoes? Is this just the demand drop from Canada?

        Or a supply chain issue because a processing facility has to close cause all their workers were deported…
