"guy who has proved he is bad at business does a bad business deal, his supporters suffer for it. More at 11."
Some of these ranchers are family, so blinded by fear of ethnic minorities and "them damn antifuh slurs" that they can't see how their blind faith in orange man is actively hurting them. These guys are literally about to lose their ranch to a corporate firm who will almost certainly hire them again to tend it until they die at starvation wages. And when their kids refuse to take those reigns they'll bring in the very ethnic minorities those idiots are terrified to do the work instead.
These are people who are literally as far away from dangerous minorities as possible, and they still live in constant fear of them.
Loses ranch to corporation.
"Well, at least it's still owned by Republicans!"
these people better start learning mandarin and writing chinese soon.
blinded by fear of minorities, that they will never meet inside of thier bubble.
