#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “The Trump administration in its infinite wisdom, also this year, radically has screwed up its agriculture numbers, which has turned out to be a huge expensive catastrophe…From the NYT: ‘After Trump’s Agriculture Department made its estimate last Summer of how much corn American farmers would harvest this year, ‘the projection had to be repeatedly revised upward until in January the department found 1.3 million more acres of corn that it had not accounted for in its earlier estimate.’ 1.3 million acres is an area ‘larger than Delaware.’”
