There are a lot of Missouri beans to sell.
Since your president Dolt 45 started that trade war and the Chinese turned off the bean buying.
Let me know how that goes?
Not the trade war, selling all those left over soybeans.
Can the French can feed more beans to their frogs?
Back at you.
Commander Bonespurs and his klan of ne'er-do-well swells wouldn't be occupying the White House without the votes of millions ifiots like you and yours!
I thought it was because of the Russians. Can you sore loser, fit throwing, crybabies please make up your minds why the Democrats didn't win the election? You guys are like monkeys throwing poo at a wall. Just trying to see if anything sticks.
