California farmers backed Trump. Now, his tariffs could hurt them

Mind you, they have learned nothing, apparently:

Still, many farmers, who backed Trump by large margins in the 2024 election, were reluctant to speak openly about their concerns, for fear of being seen as criticizing him or because they hope the administration will protect farmers as it has in the past.
