Cattle ranchers: a demographic so in the bag for Trump, the only way he could possibly piss them off is to dump shitty cheap hamburger into the market. That's a highly specific thing, and it's the only damn thing that could get these guys to stay home in November.

Trump tried to make burgers cheaper. It backfired spectacularly.

Even the guy who wrote the Gospel of Matthew knew it's stupid to build a house on sand. And he lived 2000 years ago.
Matthew 7:24-27

24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”
