Republican Sen. Deb Fischer of Nebraska on Tuesday warned President Donald Trump that his proposal for the U.S. to buy Argentina’s beef will hurt American cattle ranchers and fail to lower prices.
“Bottom line: if the goal is addressing beef prices at the grocery store, this isn’t the way,” Fischer wrote in an X post.
Trump floated the idea over the weekend as a way to bring down beef costs, which have soared in the U.S. this year.
The tentative plan would involve further U.S. investment in Argentina, the South American nation whose teetering economy has recently been buoyed by a $20 billion currency swap deal with the Trump administration.
Good. Fuck the farmers and ranchers. They voted for this cocksucker. Now they can pay their dues.
Sadly, they’ll bitch and get a bailout of our tax dollars.
Yup. Taxpayers are ultimately goingto pay for this…twice.
Yeah, people might discover how mediocre US beef is.
LOL that you think he cares.
Why, though? All he wants to do is flood the market with enough foreign meat, that the local price bottoms out…at a time when local ranchers are already struggling to make ends meet due to a variety of uncontrollable circumstances.
What could possibly go wrong? /s
Those ranchers are going to end up selling their operations and land at a hefty discount…guess who’s buying
Gotta feed the leopards.

It’s not. Milei offered US oligarchs a chance to loot Argentina in exchange for sending money to Argentina. Argentine’s oligarchs walk away with $40 billion.
The beef trade is just another facet of the corruption.
The oligarchs here are consolidating the food supply by bankrupting all the smaller companies.
Well, well, well, if it isn’t the day you voted for…
Silver lining?
Argentine beef is widely considered some of the best in the world, so your steak is about to get a lot tastier!
Plus, the marinade of Magat tears.
Did he make the announcement while handing over a check for millions of dollars and sucking his dick? If not, message will not be received.
But Nebraska… Your beef has got the avian aids.
Isnt that the objective? Make them more subservient.
