President Donald Trump's idea to give American farmers a bailout using the money the government has collected from its tariff policies was slammed by a former GOP analyst on Sunday.
Tim Miller, host of The Bulwark's eponymous podcast, discussed Trump's bailout idea during a new episode of "Bulwark Takes" on Sunday. Miller described the policy proposal as "the stupidest policy that I think I've ever seen" and expressed surprise at Sen. John Thune (R-SD) for defending the proposal during an interview on CNN.
"These tariffs, which were supposed to bring about a golden age, are supposed to help rural America in particular, supposed to help the forgotten man," Miller said. "To have them within nine months be such a catastrophe that you have to do a taxpayer-funded bailout to help the people that you f----- over because your policy was so stupid. I mean, that is like a land speed record for policy disaster."
